This is part one of a trilogy in regards to thhe way language is used as an atempt to resolve conflicts.he work is a mechanically reproduced collage of texts relating to war and peace. Laid in are a folded one-page statement about the piece and a folded sheet, printed on both sides, titled "A History of the Arms Race;" this is present in one copy but not in the other copy. Riddell writes in his statement: 'The literary format offered is unusual, in... that it employs a strategy which shifts the responsibility for production- communication from the traditional power-locus of an exclusive Authority towards the 'reader-participant/s'." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
