I hope the book will be read by all." -- Ted Turner "Amartya Sen brings to our generation a new and modern vision of how to obtain peace." -- George Akerlof, Nobel Laureate in Economics "Sen is now Asia's preeminent philosopher of freedom...

Reseña del editor:

In this sweeping philosophical work, Amartya Sen proposes that the murderous violence that has riven our society is driven as much by confusion as by inescapable hatred. Challenging the reductionist division of people by race, religion, and class, Sen presents an inspiring vision of a world that can be made to move toward peace as firmly as it has spiraled in recent years toward brutality and war.
