Description

Most people are both repelled and intrigued by the images of cold-blooded, conscienceless murderers that more and more populate our movies, television programs, and newspaper headlines. With their flagrant criminal violation of society’s rules, serial killers like Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy are a number of the most dramatic examples of the psychopath. Individuals with this personality disorder are fully aware of the consequences of their actions and know the difference between right and mistaken, yet they’re terrifyingly self-centered, remorseless, and unable to care about the feelings of others. Perhaps most frightening, they continuously seem completely normal to unsuspecting targets–and they don’t all the time ply their trade by killing. Presenting a compelling portrait of these dangerous women and men based on 25 years of distinguished scientific research, Dr. Robert D. Hare vividly describes a world of con artists, hustlers, rapists, and other predators who charm, lie, and manipulate their way through life. Are psychopaths mad, or simply bad? How can they be recognized? And how are we able to protect ourselves? This book provides solid information and surprising insights for anyone seeking to take note this devastating condition.
