Product Information
A fascinating exploration into the mind of the psychopath - beneath the hype and the popular characterisation, psychopaths have something to teach us. 'A surprising, absorbing and perceptive book. I found it altogether fascinating' PHILIP PULLMAN ______________________________________________________ Psychopath. No sooner is the word out than images of murderers, rapists, suicide bombers and gangsters flash across our minds. But unlike their film and television counterparts, not all psychopaths are violent, or even criminal. Far from it. In fact, they have a lot of good things going for them. Psychopaths are fearless, confident, charismatic, ruthless and focused - qualities tailor-made for success in twenty-first-century society. In this groundbreaking adventure into the world of psychopaths, renowned psychologist Kevin Dutton reveals a shocking truth- beneath the hype and the popular stereotype, psychopaths have something to teach us. With a new introduction from the author ___________________________________________ 'Highly original . . . provocative and humorous' V. S. RAMACHANDRAN 'This startling study considers whether or not we have anything to learn from psychopaths . . . it's good to know that rubbing shoulders with such dangerous characters hasn't destroyed his sense of humour.' THE TIMES 'Inspiring and revelatory. Dutton's book gave me an insight into who I really am' ANDY McNAB 'Dutton's curiosity takes him from boardrooms and law courts to neurological labs . . . Psychopaths, we learn, are the ultimate optimists; they always think things will work in their favour' GUARDIAN 'The Wisdom of Psychopaths is captivating. Dr. Dutton's book invigorated my consideration of not just a certain television character, but slow-pulsed overachievers everywhere' MICHAEL C HALL (Dexter)Product Identifiers

Brilliantly and engagingly written.
I bought this after seeing an interview with Kevin Dutton and had been left dubious from ordering other books and finding, whilst the writers of these were brilliant speakers, they fell flat when it came to writing .. but Dutton's writing is as transfixing as he is to listen to. Brilliantly written with humour, fantastic language and really engaging in every aspect. He is a natural storyteller and explains the subject, eloquently and in great depth He has a vast experience which is conveyed brilliantly and captivates the reader immediately. Really look forward to picking the book up and getting lost in not only the subject matter but with Dutton's amazing ability to make the subject so understandable. Thoroughly recommend the book. It's brilliant !Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
