Perhaps the following? I haven't read it and don't know how much it
speaks of violence, but it does seem to have been reviewed etc. a lot.
(It's four years old, so if the book mentioned on NPR was supposed to
be a new one, it wouldn't be this.)

"Todd talks with P. M. Forni, cofounder of the Johns Hopkins Civility
Project, about how to incorporate civility into our lives at work and home.
Forni explains why consideration and honesty are still important today, even
in our fast-paced society. His book is "Choosing Civility: The Twenty-five
Rules of Considerate Conduct", and he is a professor at Johns Hopkins
University."

Good morning--
This is a nonfiction question, but I'm hoping the collective brain will
know....
Patron heard about a book on NPR that talked about a lack of civility
leading to increased violence. He thinks the word 'Civility' was in the
title. I searched NPR and came up with Mark Caldwell's Short History of
Rudeness, which I have pulled, but it doesn't quite fit.
Any suggestions?
Thank you!
Melissa
