"A theoretically rich micro-macro synthesis that transforms the way we think about international conflict." John Braithwaite, Philosophy and Law, The Australian National University This description may be from another edition of this product.
Bloody Revenge boldly cuts across the divisions between sociology, psychology, and history. It ranges from micro processes of quarrels to a broad look at international relations. Scheff's insight into the emotion of shame, which he calls the master emotion, illustrates how the social emotional processes can lead to protracted conflict. It is a truly important and brilliant book that is on the forefront of human knowledge.
Very interesting.

As a student of sociology aspiring to in-depth studies of conflict theory, I found this book very interesting and not at all unfriendly to the novice.
