About this eBook
If you think world peace is a naive concept, Paul K. Chappell’s very
existence will give you pause. It’s not enough to say that Chappell – a West
Point graduate and Iraq War veteran – is a soldier turned peace leader.
Experiencing a traumatic upbringing and growing up mixed race in Alabama,
he’s a young man forged by violence, rage, and racism into a living weapon
for peace. By unlocking the mysteries of human nature, he shows how the
muscles of hope, empathy, appreciation, conscience, reason, discipline, and
curiosity give us the power to end the wars between countries, our ongoing
war with nature, and the war in our hearts.
