The Wisdom of Psychopaths by Kevin Dutton
Psychopath. No sooner is the word out than images of murderers, rapists, suicide bombers and gangsters flash across our minds. But unlike their box-office counterparts, not all psychopaths are violent, or even criminal. This title reveals a shocking truth: beneath the hype and the popular characterisation, psychopaths have something to teach us.
An original and thought-provoking study * Daily Mail *
Goes beyond cliché to view the world through a psychopath's eyes … this book knows how to get under the skin * Guardian *
The Wisdom of Psychopaths is a surprising, absorbing, and perceptive book set out in briskly readable prose and with gripping anecdotesI found it altogether fascinating.
Kevin Dutton is a Special Forces style psychologist. Daring. Original. All-action. No nonsense. -- Sir Ranulph Fiennes
Dutton tackles an elusive, important and much neglected aspect of the mind; our personality. He presents some highly original insights and does so in a provocative and humorous style
