Title
The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness - Paperback
by Erich Fromm (Author)
Renowned psychoanalyst and social philosopher Erich Fromm examines the causes and effects of people's violent tendencies in The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness.
"A book by Erich Fromm is always intelligent and contains much of interest and insight, and this one is no exception."--The New York Times In this provocative book, Erich Fromm examines the roots of human violence. Exploring the struggle between the instinctivism of Konrad Lorenz and the behaviorism of B. F. Skinner, he asks: Are people inherently antagonistic or do they learn hostility from their environment and the actions of those around them? Drawing from neurophysiology and anthropology research, Fromm presents fascinating ideas about how the human character and condition developed--and continues to develop--in contemporary society.
Author Biography
Erich Fromm was a political activist, psychologist, psychoanalyst, philosopher, and one of the most important intellectuals of the twentieth century. His works include The Art of Loving, Escape from Freedom, and The Sane Society. Known for his theories of personality and political insight, Fromm dissected the sadomasochistic appeal of brutal dictators while also eloquently championing love―which, he insisted, was nothing if it did not involve joyful contact with others and humanity at large. Admired all over the world, Fromm continues to inspire with his message of universal brotherhood and quest for lasting peace.
