“An engrossing, moving, and utterly motivating account of the human stakes of gun violence in America.”—Samantha Power, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Education of an Idealist Is America destined to always be a violent nation? This sweeping history by U.S. senator Chris Murphy explores the origins of our violent impulses, the roots of our obsession with firearms, and the mythologies that prevent us from confronting our national crisis. In many ways, the United States sets the pace for other nations to follow. Yet on the most important human concern—the need to keep ourselves and our loved ones safe from physical harm—America isn’t a leader. We are disturbingly laggard. To confront this problem, we must first understand it. In this carefully researched and deeply emotional book, Senator Chris Murphy dissects our country’s violence-filled history and the role that our unique obsession with firearms plays in this national epidemic. Murphy tells the story of his profound personal transformation in the wake of the mass murder at Newtown, and his subsequent immersion in the complicated web of influences that drive American violence. Murphy comes to the conclusion that while America’s relationship to violence is indeed unique, America is not inescapably violent. Even as he details the reasons we’ve tolerated so much bloodshed for so long, he explains that we have the power to change. Murphy takes on the familiar arguments, obliterates the stale talking points, and charts the way to a fresh, less polarized conversation about violence and the weapons that enable it—a conversation we urgently need in order to transform the national dialogue and save lives.

What reviewers are saying...

MY PET WORLD
“There aren't many books out there with 1,000 photos of dogs (and also wolves) expressing themselves. You'll see signs of mild stress, which range from a paw lift to lip licking to blinking. A yawn may simply mean a dog is tired, or indicate stress. Stretching can also be a sign of stress. Dogs are constantly communicating non-verbally. This book is a must for anyone truly interested in translating what canines are saying.” Steve Dale

In the vast emptiness of space lies in limbo a semismall planet. The planet is peaceful and quiet. Evil forces, though, has a different plan for this planet. The planet is enchanted by a six-shard crystal. This ordinary-looking crystal could form two more shards if needed. The crystal is protected by mystical beings known as the Intercessor Watchers. The Watchers are powerful, but there are only five of them to protect this rare crystal. The Watchers could feel that one day something or someone would try to steal the crystal. They also know that whoever steals it will use it for their own purpose. For generations, they have protected the crystal by sending it through portals and time. They would then follow it and replace it safely somewhere else. Never has the crystal had to protect itself by scattering all the shards to different places to hide itself from evil. Now in the far-off reaches of space, a very powerful villain lurks to capture the crystal. The villain known as Master Sensea seeks a galaxy to conquer. To do this, he needs the crystal for its powers. On the planet, the five are not worried about anything happening. One of the Watchers fears that something is wrong and knew they should have been worried.
