The Unconquerable World - Sale Edition

Why Peaceful Protest Is Stronger Than War

BY JONATHAN SCHELL

Brief Description:
It is not always the military battles that matter most - this inspiring book shows that there is, and always has been, a non-violent alternative to war as a way of directing human society. After a century of unprecedented devastation, it seems humankind is preparing to embark on another cycle of violence. Are we condemned to be in a state of perpetual warfare? In this lucid, impassioned, provocative book Schell shows how the underlying dynamics of history have often been shaped not by military actions, but by battles for the hearts and minds of the people. He examines key moments in history through the prism of non-violence.
