The Psychopaths among us

This article written by Dr Robert Hare, an expert on Psychopathy and writer of Without Conscience and Snakes in Suits suggests that there are 300,000 psychopaths in Canada alone. All of which have the ability to blend in.

The article highlights the dangers of being around psychopaths. However Hare goes onto say "After thirty-five years of work, Bob Hare has brought us to the stage where we know what psychopathy is, how much damage psychopaths do, and even how to identify them. But we don't know how to treat them or protect the population from them. The real work is just beginning. Solving the puzzle of the psychopath is an invigorating prospect -- if you're a scientist. Perhaps the rest of us can be forgiven for our impatience to see the whole thing come to an end. "
