From Animal Weapons to New-world Arms Race

 A brief review and summary of the book by Douglas Emlen.

Existential risk deals primarily with the potential causes of human extinction or permanent global totalitarianism. Even if we bear in mind the potential risk of AI, nuclear warfare still stands tall as the sure-hit event toward a global catastrophic scenario. In this post, we'll look into the origin of battle(of any kind), how it progresses, the motivations involved, the measures available, and the possible end as we go through the book Animal Weapons: The Evolution of Battle.
