Evil: Inside Human Violence and CrueltyWhy is there evil, and what can scientific research tell us about the origins and persistence of evil behavior? Considering evil from the unusual perspective of the perpetrator, Baumeister asks, How do ordinary people find themselves beating their wives? Murdering rival gang members?

Why is there evil, and what can scientific research tell us about the origins and persistence of evil behavior? Considering evil from the unusual perspective of the perpetrator, Baumeister asks, How do ordinary people find themselves beating their wives? Murdering rival gang members? Torturing political prisoners? Betraying their colleagues to the secret police? Why do cycles of revenge so often escalate?

Baumeister casts new light on these issues as he examines the gap between the victim's viewpoint and that of the perpetrator, and also the roots of evil behavior, from egotism and revenge to idealism and sadism. A fascinating study of one of humankind's oldest problems, Evil has profound implications for the way we conduct our lives and govern our society.

Great Scent
Scent: Sweet Tobacco, Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I was looking for an everyday lotion that was close to the scent of some of my other personal items (shaving creams, etc). This was a shot in the dark, given that I have never used any of this company's products in the past. However, I was actually quite surprised today when I received this lotion. The packaging was nice enough, which sometimes isn't really all that important, but I always look at packaging as a sign of how much an organization cares for their products. The lotion its self has a great scent. I applied the lotion a few hours ago, and while the initial smell is a little strong, it fades quite nicely, leaving a more subtle smell hours later. I didn't find this lotion to be very greasy, especially after about 5 mins. I'm looking forward to using this over a longer period of time to better gauge its moisturizing effectiveness.

It's ALRIGHT
Scent: Sandalwood, Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Smells like unscented lotion like some say, it is made in China, so it could either be fake or just low quality because of that fact alone. Still helps a little bit with dry skin, it's not overly greasy/moisturizing.
