Insights into Violence

Synopsis: Violent behaviour comes in many forms from individual aggression through to war, and it has existed throughout history. The reasons behind violent behaviour are very complex, and social psychologists look to evolution, the individual’s brain patterns and the social context to help explain this ever-present phenomenon. Contributors are Professor Adrian Raine, Dr Anne Campbell and Michael Ignatieff.

Notes: NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
