Sen. Chris Murphy, the Connecticut Democrat who has become a leading voice in Congress on the issue of gun control, is writing a book about violence in America. Murphy announced the book on Twitter, writing: “I’ve got a book coming out January 2020! “‘The Violence Inside Us’ examines the deep roots of human violence itself and the propensity of people to harm themselves and each other,” the publisher added. “The result is a carefully researched, deeply emotional, and personal book that dissects America’s violence obsession through an evolutionary, historical, and economic lens. “The Violence Inside Us: A Brief History of an Ongoing American Tragedy” is slated for publication on Jan. 7.
