Inhaltsangabe

This book examines social patterns in 2,000 mass shootings in the US between 2013 and 2020. Mass shootings are often described as psychological, but the authors show that social factors produce the anger behind mass shootings. By understanding the social factors, we can reduce the anger people feel that would drive them to killing others.
