'Canada Free Press' article on human violence quotes David Livingstone Smith

The Canada Free Press featured an article on December 1, 2013, that quoted David Livingstone Smith, Ph.D., professor of philosophy, in his 2007 book, The Most Dangerous Animal:  Human Nature and the Origins of War.

The article, 鈥淰iolence is Very Human,鈥 discussed two studies of human violence, one of which was Smith鈥檚.

Smith was quoted: 鈥淭he track record of our species shows, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that we are extremely dangerous animals, and the balance of evidence suggests that our taste for killing is not some sort of cultural artifact, but was bred into us over millions of years by natural and sexual selections.鈥
