Publisher's Summary

Too often, fatherlessness and dysfunctional families are mentioned as possible contributing causes among school shooters and other killers. But just as quickly, it is all ignored as the conversation moves on to other topics—most often to guns, mental health, or security failures. Those things often fit the agendas of politicians and the news media. Yet, when we look at killers of all sorts and of all ages, the shared foundation among the vast majority of them—is fatherlessness. Almost all of the most deadly killers throughout the whole of history were fatherless. 

This book's focus is on the potentially lethal damage of fatherlessness (Note that fatherless children are not necessarily killers. However, as observed in the book, the majority of killers themselves are fatherless). Footnotes are not available in the audiobook. They are available in both ebook and paperback formats. 

By the author of Education Is Dead: Reflections on a Failed Public Education System and The Cartainos: Men of Passion–Men of Stone.
