What draws our species to conflict and makes us see it as some sort of sacred starting? In Blood Rites, renowned sociable critic Barbara Ehrenreich plumbs the enigma of the human being attraction to assault. Within this sweeping work, she requires us on an original voyage from the grasslands of prehistoric Africa to the trenches of Verdun, from the spectacular human being sacrifices of pre-colonial Central America to the carnage and holocaust of twentieth-century 'total conflict'. Ehrenreich traces the progression of conflict from prehistoric forms of socially-sanctioned assault to the mass faith we realize today as nationalism, and shows the persistence of historic doubts in the most modern rituals and passions of conflict. Brillant in conception, rich in depth, epic in scope, Blood Rites is a monumental work that will transform our knowledge of the archaic practice that has been the biggest solitary threat to human being life.
