The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined by Steven Pinker

2.0

Well. I am changing my review of this after having read about half of Rutger Bregman's Humankind, a Hopeful History. Although Better Angels still contains a lot of interesting information, some of it which no doubt still holds water, I would be dubious about trusting anything that man has written outside of this field considering the egregious errors and oversights he made with his data collection for this book.

It seems that for all he's such an ardent proponent of reason, he has yet to learn the difference between reason and rationalisation. Do better, Steven Pinker.
