Inside "In a tour de force of interdusciolinary speculative thought, Professor Mansfield examines the phenomenon of war as a social institution through the lens of Gestalt psychology. She maintains that war is not intrinsic to human nature or an inevitable response to crises. It is but one of the creative (if costly) ways in which human beings have attempted to deal with unresolved problems posed by existence or created by particular cultural forms.
