A study of aggression from the renowned social psychologist and New
York Times–bestselling author of The Art of Loving and Escape from
Freedom. Throughout history, humans have shown an incredible talent
for destruction as well as creation. Aggression has driven us to great
heights and brutal lows. In The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness,
renowned social psychologist Erich Fromm discusses the differences
between forms of aggression typical for animals and two very specific
forms of destructiveness that can only be found in human beings:
sadism and necrophilic destructiveness. His case studies span zoo
animals, necrophiliacs, and the psychobiographies of notorious figures
such as Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin. Through his broad scholarship,
Fromm offers a comprehensive exploration of the human impulse for
violence. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Erich
Fromm including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the
author’s estate.
