Description:

Paul K. Chappell’s paradigm-shifting presentation examines whether human beings are naturally violent or naturally peaceful, the causes of aggression and violence, every army’s greatest problem, why war drives people insane, the myths that perpetuate war, and why we must wage peace to solve our 21st century problems.

Paul K. Chappell is a West Point graduate, Iraq War veteran, and former army captain who serves as Peace Leadership Director of the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation. Part African-American, part Asian, and part Caucasian, Chappell grew up in a violent household in Alabama with a father who fought in the Korean and Vietnam wars. Chappell’s most recent book in his seven book Road to Peace series is The Art of Waging Peace.
