Almost a Psychopath

In "Almost a Psychopath," authors Ronald Schouten, MD, JD, and James Silver, JD, explore the traits and behaviors of individuals who exhibit certain psychopathic characteristics—such as grandiosity, manipulation, and lack of remorse—without reaching the extremes seen in true psychopaths. These individuals can be found in everyday life as spouses, coworkers, or neighbors, often charming those around them while lacking genuine connections. Drawing on scientific research and personal experiences, the book aims to help listeners identify these traits in themselves or others and provides guidance for behavioral change and intervention.
