Sinossi
Peace reflects the most fundamental right and human desire - the right to life. Peace is the right of a parent to protect a child from poverty and conflict, and peace is the profound social diktat that a man must put down his gun. And although peace should therefore be considered the natural state of affairs, war seems to be the only constant in our history. Peace is the time between wars, and war is legitimately employed to pursue a society's interests. ---- FOREWORD
