About the Book: The End of Violence by Dr. Gary Slutkin presents a groundbreaking approach to understanding violence as a contagious public health epidemic rather than a moral failing. Drawing on decades of experience in infectious disease control and the work of Cure Violence Global, the book explains how evidence-based interventions have successfully reduced violence in communities around the world. Blending public health, psychology, sociology, and criminology, this thought-provoking nonfiction book offers a practical and hopeful blueprint for creating safer, more peaceful societies.
