Fever in the World of the Mind presents an integrated formulation of violence, taking into consideration its biological, psychological, social, and spiritual roots. The author, Dr. H.B. Danesh, President of the International Education for Peace Institute, draws from his work over four decades as a university professor, psychiatrist, and peace educator, as well as from his research and writings on the psychology of spirituality. He brings his wide-ranging knowledge and expertise together and presents them in an integrated formulation on how to understand and prevent violence. The book outlines some of the unique dimensions of human violence. In doing so it departs significantly from the current broadly held views that human violence and animal violence are fundamentally the same, both shaped and replenished primarily by the biological and evolutionary forces. Fever in the World of the Mind is the sixth volume in the Education for Peace Integrative Curriculum Series.

Relationships

In the latter decades of the nineteenth century, in the midst of dramatic and far-reaching 
developments, humanity's ancient relationship with God was at once fractured and renewed. 
In that momentous century remarkable changes in the areas of science, the arts, religion, 
and political leadership occurred. Concomitantly, religion underwent highly consequential 
changes and challenges. These ranged from open rejection of religion and adoption of 
secularism by many individuals; attempts at modernization, reform, and social activism by 
some religions; militarism, fundamentalism, and fanaticism in segments of various faith 
groups; and open debates regarding the legitimacy, usefulness, and necessity of religion. 
In the midst of the emergence of the age of atheism in the nineteenth century, a new world 
religion--the Bahá'í Faith--with striking and profound new perspectives on all aspects of 
life, but especially with regard to human relationships in general, and with God in 
particular, came into being. This book is a brief introduction to Baha'u'llah, the 
Manifestation of God for this age.
