In reply to the discussion: THESE ARE THE TOP 10 JOBS MOST LIKELY TO ATTRACT PSYCHOPATHS (SHOULD WE BE WORRIED?) [View all]ReRe
(12,190 posts)42. Thank you for this post and reference to "The Wisdom of Psychopaths"
K&R
One of the best things to do to not become a victim of a psychopath/sociopath is to be able to know one when you see one. And in order to do that, you have to pick up a book and do some reading. Speaking of reading, I read this thread before I replied to you. There are some nay-sayers or doubters here, but please don't be offended by them. I know not being offended is easier said than done, but you will develop a thick skin if you stick around here long enough. That being said, your post does "pass the sniff test", as I have studied the subject of phychopathology/sociopathy. I do hope DUers will pick this book up and read it. They can ask for it at their local library too. Welcome to DU!

OP
I copied and pasted the original title. It was capped. The book is by a psychologist - Kevin Dutton

Thank you. I copied and pasted the list, so per copyright infringement law I posted the blaze link.

Try not to let it get to ya. As soon as I saw Kutton's name I was very interested.

I would have thought 'Authors of Books About Psychopaths Top Jobs' would have been on the list

It's true... if you've been around one you're more likely to recognize another.
