One out of a hundred of us are psychopathic, according to experts. One out of a hundred! And while it’s true that 20% of our prison populations are comprised of psychopaths, the majority are non-violent. Think Bernie Madoff and Anthony Weiner, not just Hannibal Lecter. You can find them everywhere: in the office next door, at school, or while dating.
New York Times bestselling author, Douglas E. Richards, joins host Michele Mattia at 2pm ET for an engaging hour to discuss his latest book The Cure! As a former biotech executive with a master’s in genetic engineering, Douglas is known for writing best selling novels containing accurate, meticulously researched science.
Richards believes the prevalence of psychopaths among politicians is at epidemic proportions. “Psychopaths are deceitful, narcissistic backstabbers," says Richards. "When caught in a bald-faced lie, they don’t get embarrassed, they just switch gears and move on. If you follow politics at all,” he adds, “these behaviors are all too familiar.”
