Sinopsis

Life Fighting teaches the moral how to fight well.Fighting has gotten a bad name, it should not be so.ááFighting itself is neither moral nor immoral, only itsáobjectácan be said to be so. To be moral isánot to fight no one, to be moral is to fight those who vitiate life and civilization.ááEdward Wilson writes that, if 'moral aptitude' is like every other trait studied to date, it forms a bell curve, has a natural genetic distribution:áásome human beings are moral, others amoral or immoral. That the moral are far less willing to fight than the immoral has always hurt societies.á'Many moral advances have consisted not of eschewing force across the board,' writes Steven Pinker, 'but of applying it in carefully measured doses.'áIf we truly wish to make the world a better place, we should sometimes fight.'The art of war is an art with principles,' said Napoleon, 'and these principles must never be violated.'áThe best study of these principles is the lives of those who applied them best.áLife Fighting illustrates the principles by showing how Julius Caesar, Richelieu, Talleyrand, Napoleon, and Bill Gates applied them.The website of Life Fighting is: www.lifefighting.net
