Summary

"The product of over five years of research, Ceremonial Violence analyzes the events leading up to, and comprising some of the most chilling school rampage shooting in recent years and their aftermath. Despite being subjected to obsessive coverage by the media, this is the first time these cases have been examined in a way that truly illuminates the tragic phenomenon of school rampage shootings and its causes for laymen."--BOOK JACKET.
