This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
A ruthless, unforgettable examination of the world's most dangerous illusion.
We are told to seek peace. We are told it is possible. We are told the world is getting better.
This book tears that fantasy apart.
Peace is a Myth is not a history book. It is a reckoning. From the streets of Belfast to the hills of Rwanda, from the temples of India to the boardrooms of the United Nations, this provocative work exposes the truth behind centuries of conflict, the false promises of unity, and the carefully packaged performance of global harmony. It challenges the reader to confront what leaders won't admit: that peace is not humanity's default state—it is the exception, not the rule.
Through searing chapters, each grounded in brutal history, modern geopolitics, and psychological insight, the book explores how nations, religions, ideologies, and even the human mind itself are hardwired for division. It reveals how so-called "peace" is often manufactured, manipulated, or monetized—and how the desire for control almost always wins over the dream of unity.
From genocide to algorithmic silence, from religious schisms to artificial calm, Peace is a Myth exposes the chaos behind the curtain—and dares to ask the questions no one wants answered.
Is peace even real?
Or is it simply the lie we tell ourselves between wars?
