The author traces the practice from its roots in the ancient world to its resurgence in the Middle Ages and its prevalence in the modern era. Examining the ethical implications of dueling, the book argues that it is inherently opposed to Christian principles and the values of a civilized society.

It calls for a greater emphasis on reason, morality, and the rule of law as a means of resolving conflicts and preserving human life.
