Life Fighting: Why We Must Sometimes Fight, and How to Do So Well

Robert W. Sweet
4.9/5 (24254 ratings)
Description:Fighting has gotten a bad name; it should not be so. Fighting itself is neither moral nor immoral; only its object can be said to be so. To be moral is not to fight no one; to be moral is to fight those who vitiate life and civilization. In Consilience, Edward Wilson writes that, if "moral aptitude" is like every other trait studied to date, it forms a bell curve, has a natural genetic distribution: some human beings are moral, others amoral or immoral. That the moral are far less willing to fight than the immoral has always hurt societies. "Many moral advances have consisted not of eschewing force across the board," writes Steven Pinker in The Better Angels of Our Nature, "but of applying it in carefully measured doses." If we truly wish to make the world a better place, we should sometimes fight."The art of war is an art with principles," said Napoleon, "and these principles must never be violated." The best study of these principles is the lives of those who applied them best. Life Fighting illustrates the principles by showing how Julius Caesar, Richelieu, Talleyrand, Napoleon, and Bill Gates applied them.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
