Throughout this compelling investigation, Eller locates himself and remains firmly planted on that narrow patch of middle ground between blaming all violence on religion and claiming that religion is purely nonviolent and peaceful. Before his analysis begins in earnest, Eller first fleshes out the meanings of religion and violenceùa step that is often skipped and yet is absolutely critical if we are ever to fully understand and resolve the phenomenon of religious violence.

Without a doubt, religion, violence, and nonviolence are complicated conceptsùbut the road to ending or reducing religious violence doesn't necessarily have to be so fraught with accusations, conflicting views, and dismissive attitudes. After clearing away many misconceptions about religious violence as well as numerous easy and all-to-improbable solutions, Eller details a realistic approach to creating a more peaceful future.
