The Psychopath Examination: A Journey Into the Madness Industry

Psychopath Hospital that claims to be a sacrifice of the psychiatric industry's unfalsifiable investigations.

Psychopath is a 2011 book by British author Jon Ronson that examines the notion of psychopathy and the more significant mental health “business,” which includes mental health practitioners and the media.

Psychopath spent the entire year of 2012 on the best-seller charts in the United Kingdom, as well as ten weeks on the New York Times Best Seller list.

Ronson meets several alleged psychopaths and psychologists and psychiatrists who have researched them, including Canadian psychologist Robert D. Hare, the creator of the Hare Psychopathy Checklist, a 20-part test for detecting psychopathy. Ronson investigates the concept that many business and governmental leaders are psychopaths whose conduct toward others can only be explained by that fact. He applies the Hare test to see whether there is any truth to it.

He meets Toto Constant, whom he suspects of being a psychopath, corporate leader Albert J. Dunlap, whom the magazine Fast Company suspected of being a psychopath, and a young man detained at Broadmoor Psychiatric Hospital that claims to be a sacrifice of the psychiatric industry’s unfalsifiable investigations.

He delivers with Anthony Maden, a professor and the forensic psychiatrist in charge of Broadmoor’s Dangerous and Severe Personality Disorder (DSPD) unit, who tells him that the controversial DSPD scheme would not have happened without Hare’s checklist and adds that the controversial DSPD scheme would not have occurred without Hare’s checklist.

“Also if you don’t make those judgments of Bob Hare’s production simple, it’s if you look at his checklist, that you can get a high score by being impulsive and irresponsible or by coldly planning to do something” and “Even if you don’t accept those criticisms of Bob Hare’s work…obvious, it’s if you look at his checklist, you can get a high score by being impulsive and responds a result, people from all walks of life end up with the same score.”
