Hatred: understanding our most dangerous emotion

Prologue (or, wishing your son were never born)

Hit me with your best shot : an anatomy of the antagonistic emotions

It's a thin line between love and hate : when we hate the people we love

Bad blood : vengeance and hate's justification

Bad to the bone : hate as a trait

Killing in the name of : collective intentionality and group hate

Baby, it's in your nature : misogyny, femininity, and female filth

Keep the change, you filthy animal : racial hatred and the American phantasy

And justice for all : hate speech, group libel, and rational discourse

Conclusion (or, those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it).
