Episode number 24 of Series “Discovering psychology”.
How can psychology aid astronauts in space? How can psychology end conflict that leads to war?

He also examines the psychology of peace - the study of the process of dehumanisation in the nuclear arms race and the art of conciliation in negotiating for peace.
