Confronting Evil : Assessing the Worst of the Worst
Confronting Evil recounts the deeds of the worst people in history: Genghis Khan. The Roman Emperor Caligula. Henry VIII. The 19th-century slave traders and the 20th-century robber barons. Stalin. Hitler. Mao. The Ayatollah Khomeini.
Putin. The Mexican drug cartels. By telling what they did and why. Confronting Evil explains the struggle between good and evil - a choice every person is compelled to make. But many look away. Prepare yourself to read the consequences of that inaction. As John Stuart Mill said in 1867: "Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing.".
