Description :
Technology will make killing a thing of the past. The gun is antiquated
technology, and it is responsible for tens of thousands of senseless killings
every year. Humanity has accepted that killing is an unavoidable fact of life -
but Rick Smith argues that it doesn 8217 t need to be this way and that we
have the means to make the bullet obsolete in our lifetime. Smith is the
founder of TASER (now Axon), and in this book, he demonstrates that we are
on the cusp of a world in which killing is neither required nor acceptable. That
change won't come by way of stricter gun control laws. No, what holds us back
from making an overdue and necessary shift in how we think about weapons is
our skepticism about new technologies and their potential. Smith has devoted
his career to understanding why and how we kill each other. In The End of
Killing, he reviews the history of weaponry and warfare as well as the latest
technologies in crowd control, surveillance, and artificial intelligence. He
delves into the big, thorny questions about how technology is creating more
tools for police, homeland security, and military, and offering more options for
our personal safety and our justice system. With clarity and conviction, he
challenges the conventional wisdom on these subjects, showing how
technologies that appear strange and scary at first can be the key to making
the gun a relic of the past. In our current impasse of dead-end debates about
gun violence and police brutality, Smith offers us a clear roadmap into a safer
future. Thought-provoking, insightful, and controversial, The End of Killing will
make you reconsider the violent world you inhabit - and imagine the safer
world on the horizon.
