Appears you're in good company.

From Wikipedia on Steven Pinker:
Quote:Edward S. Herman and David Peterson have criticized The Better Angels of Our Nature. In an extensive essay, they accuse Pinker of having ventured outside of his field of expertise, and of cherry-picking historical data to fit his thesis. The main themes are Pinker's apologetics for imperialist expansionism, geopolitics of capitalism and anti-communism, manufacturing his questionable sources to fit the conclusions.
