GoogleUC Irvine neuroscientist James Fallon had already been studying
the brains of psychopathic killers for years when his mother told
him that he comes from a long line of murderers (including his
infamous cousin, Lizzie Borden). After studying himself, Fallon
discovered that he has two of the three ingredients for
psychopathology.
Fallon sat down with Reason.tv to explain why he's not a murderer,
why others are, and what it is about libertarians that-just
might-keep them peaceful.
Approximately 8.50 minutes.
