Population Wars: A New Perspective on Competition and Coexistence

Greg Graffin is a one-of-a-kind thinker who combines his punk rock ethos with scientific theory to present an original take on how not just human history but the history of earth's species have been defined and shaped by conflict. In many ways, he argues in Population Wars, that billion-year history of conflict predicts and shapes our lives.

But if that's the case, then what freedom do you really have? What use is competition? What is the justification for environmental preservation? Is sustainability attainable? Drawing upon a vast array of topics, he shows how an awareness of the never-ending wars occurring around us (and in which we're often unwitting combatants) can help us take more control of how those conflicts play out.
