Abstract

Who is the devil 'you' know? Is it your lying, cheating ex-husband? Your sadistic high school gym teacher? Your boss who loves to humiliate people in meetings? The colleague who stole your idea and passed it off as her own? In the pages of 'The Sociopath Next Door', you will realize that your ex was not just misunderstood. He's a sociopath. And your boss, teacher, and colleague? They may be sociopaths too. We are accustomed to think of sociopaths as violent criminals, but in 'The Sociopath Next Door', Harvard psychologist Martha Stout reveals that a shocking 4 percent of ordinary people& one in twenty-five& has an often undetected mental disorder, the chief symptom of which is that that person possesses no conscience. He or she has no ability whatsoever to feel shame, guilt, or remorse. One in twenty-five everyday Americans, therefore, is secretly a sociopath. They could be your colleague, your neighbor, even family. And they can do literally anything at all and feel absolutely no guilt. ' ' How do we recognize the remorseless? One of their chief characteristics is a kind of glow or charisma that makes sociopaths more charming or interesting than the other people around them. They're more spontaneous, more intense, more complex, or even sexier than everyone else, making them tricky to identify and leaving us easily seduced. Fundamentally, sociopaths are different because they cannot love. Sociopaths learn early on to show sham emotion, but underneath they are indifferent to others' suffering. They live to dominate and thrill to win. The fact is, we all almost certainly know at least one or more sociopaths already. Part of the urgency in reading 'The Sociopath Next Door' is the moment when we suddenly recognize that someone we know& someone we worked for, or were involved with, or voted for& is a sociopath. But what do we do with that knowledge? To arm us against the sociopath, Dr. Stout teaches us to question authority, suspect flattery, and beware the pity play.

Abstract

Psychopaths continue to be demonised by the media and estimatessuggest that a disturbing percentage of the population haspsychopathic tendencies. This timely and controversial new booksummarises what we already know about psychopathy and antisocialbehavior and puts forward a new case for its cause – withfar–reaching implications. Presents the scientific facts of psychopathy and antisocialbehavior. Addresses key questions, such as: What is psychopathy? Arethere psychopaths amongst us? What is wrong with psychopaths? Ispsychopathy due to nature or nurture? And can we treatpsychopaths? Reveals the authors′ ground–breaking research into whether anunderlying abnormality in brain development leaves psychopaths withan inability to feel emotion or fear. The resulting theory could lead to early diagnosis andrevolutionize the way society, the media and the state both viewsand contends with the psychopaths in our midst.
