FREE! Are Americans being played? Benjamin Radford discusses the powerful—and often unrecognized—role that fear plays in clouding perceptions about (and thwarting progress in) the United States and around the world. Radford is deputy editor of the Skeptical Inquirer science magazine and author of the award-winning book: "America the Fearful: Media and the Marketing of National Panics." He is the author, co-author or contributor to over 20 books. Radford has a master’s degree in public health from Dartmouth, a master’s degree in education from the University at Buffalo, and a bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of New Mexico.
