Review of The Sin of Omission: Narcissist Cologne Creator’s Book Revealing How Narcissism Fragmented Her Family

Monday, August 12th, 2013

Recently, I shared news about one of the more clever products that I’ve seen in a while – Narcissist cologne made by Kim Taylor.

I had just explained to her how pivotal the issue of those with reduced levels of conscience and empathy attaining positions of power is when, just to check the news, I surfed over to Yahoo.com.

I found it remarkably coincidental that, at that very point in our discussion, Yahoo’s homepage happened to be featuring the story highlighted in the image below.

 

Yahoo Psychopathic Boss Headline

This is not the first time a story of this kind has been prominently featured in the news in recent years. In fact, the frequency with which it seems to be happening has added some validation to my sense of how crucial a topic this is and helped confirm my suspicion that my own dedication of time and energy to learning and writing about it is part of a growing awareness about it in the world as a whole.
