	Video Tapes Review, The Origins of Love and Violence - by James W. Prescott, Ph.D., 2001.

	Harmful to Minors excerpt (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		Tiffany Field, the director of the Touch Research Institute at Miami University's medical school, compared children on the playgrounds in Florida with those in Paris and found that adult touch from parents, teachers, and babysitters was correlated with peaceful and cooperative play among the children.
		Prescott claimed, rather sweepingly, that his findings "directly confirm that the deprivation of body pleasure during infancy is significantly linked to a high rate of crime and violence." This link is biological, he implied: low touch programs the body to a short fuse and a quick punch.
		A more likely interpretation of these facts and Prescott's other findings is social.

	Väkivallan alkuperä
		Julkaisemme hieman lyhennettynä kehitys- ja neuropsykologi James W. Prescottin seikkaperäisen tarkastelun ihmisen väkivaltaisen käyttäytymisen syistä, jotka hän liittää yksilön varhaiseen kokemusympäristöön, ja ennen kaikkea fyysisen läheisyyden ja huolenpidon puuttumiseen personallisuuden kehityksen kannalta tärkeinä kausina.
		Prescott pitää väkivaltaisuutta eräänlaisena ihmiskuntaa vaivaavana globaalina epidemiana, jonka taudinaiheuttajan ominaisuudessa toimii tietynlainen arvomaailma, joka meidän kulttuurissamme samaistuu kristillisiin arvoihin.
