Informative
Informative and quick read, easy to read. 2nd one I have read and I’m looking forward to the rest.
Only problem I had was the conclusion:
“Psychopaths are some of the most fascinating people on the planet”……
“What is ignored as childish behavior could soon manifest itself as a psychotic tendency in a person.”
I think you mean psychopathic tendency not psychotic tendency. People can have episodes of ‘psychosis’ or be ‘psychotic’ without being a psychopath and visa versa.
Psychotic - mains symptoms hallucinations and delusions
Psychopathic - extreme or violent social behaviour
Take schizophrenia for example. Schizophrenia is a psychotic disorder. Someone with schizophrenia is more likely to hurt themselves than anyone else, they are also more likely to be harmed by others.
There is a lot of misinformation out there on psychotic disorders, and the media do not help with this. Please consider ensuring the correct language is used because this can have a detrimental impact on stigma around mental illness.
solid book
some errors in it and its a bit rushed but it does tell u the main stuff and its not too chunky to read
