Monkeys and Psychopaths
Have you ever stopped to wonder why so many of history’s bad guys have been at the wheel of so many mass-moving stories? Why so many of us have been duped by mistruth over and over again?

It explores why the ordered mind is so susceptible to good narrative and why the disordered mind is so well wired to deliver it.
