Guns, guns, and more guns: Americans love them and hate them, worship them and fear them, openly carry them and conceal them, use them for good and use them for evil. In this unique collection of essays, Fisher and Hovey help people to better understand them. Scholars from various disciplines share empirical research depicting the traditional, symbolic, practical, and impractical reasons that guns always have been and probably always will be an integral part of American culture. A must read for anyone interested in Americans' obsession with guns. -- William E. Thompson, Professor of Sociology and Criminal Justice, Texas A&M University-Commerce
