Karr-Morse, Robin. Ghosts from the Nursery: Tracing the Roots of Violence. New York: The Atlantic Monthly Press, 1997.
Dr. Gess chose this book because:
“This intense book is an excellent read for any one going into education, social work, criminal justice, psychology, law enforcement, as well as those with an interest in understanding ‘why’ some people become violent. As stated in the Preface: ‘the key to understanding the roots of violence is the number of factors at play in relationship to the number of protective factors available in the child’s environment’. For me, this book truly underscores the importance of our holding environments.”
