'This book builds upon and expands the pioneering work of the late Hervey Cleckley in defining, recognizing, and treating the antisocial personality and related syndromes. This clearly written and engaging volume provides a blend of the latest information on epidemiology, psychobiology of aggression, and other research areas from a biopsychosocial perspective. Clinicians will find the case examples and chapters on therapeutic approaches - including the feelings of the therapist - especially useful in working with this difficult and challenging population.' -Carolyn B.
