Story
We are accustomed to think of sociopaths as violent criminals, but in The Sociopath Next Door, Harvard psychologist Martha Stout reveals that a shocking 4 percent of ordinary people, one in 25, has an often undetected mental disorder, the chief symptom of which is that that person possesses no conscience. He or she has no ability whatsoever to feel shame, guilt, or remorse. One in 25 everyday Americans, therefore, is secretly a sociopath.

Using the many chilling and often heartbreaking emails and letters she has received over the years, Dr. Martha Stout uncovers the psychology behind the sociopath's methods and provides concrete guidelines to help navigate these dangerous interactions.

We may all know some people who could fit the profile, but sometimes, the term psycho gets used out of context. What defines a psychopath, and how are they different from sociopaths? Psychopathy is not uncommon, and chances are that you might know someone who is one, even though it may have never crossed your mind. To study and understand what a psychopath is and how to look for the signs and subtle differences, is to protect yourself and others, and to get a greater comprehension of the human mind.

As M. E. Thomas says of her fellow sociopaths, we are your neighbors, co-workers, and quite possibly the people closest to you: lovers, family, friends. Our risk-seeking behavior and general fearlessness are thrilling, our glibness and charm alluring. Our often quick wit and outside-the-box thinking make us appear intelligent - even brilliant. We climb the corporate ladder faster than the rest, and appear to have limitless self-confidence.... Who are we? We are highly successful, non-criminal sociopaths and we comprise 4% of the American population (that's 1 in 25 people!).

With their flagrant criminal violation of society's rules, serial killers like Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy are among the most dramatic examples of the psychopath. Individuals with this personality disorder are fully aware of the consequences of their actions and know the difference between right and wrong....

While it may seem like he is ahead of the game and should have nothing to worry about, he is still plagued by anxieties - fear of being weak; fear of being a bad dad; fear of being a worse husband; and, ultimately, fear of failure. Shook One chronicles his journey to beat back those fears and empowers you to no longer be held back from your potential.

Publisher's Summary
In The Wake of My Sociopath features a real-life story of a woman whose life was twisted and distorted by a sociopath and her rise to victory through research, recovery, and the ability to help others through her prose. The story begins with her true story of her days on the road running for her life after her sociopath threatened her very existence. The goal is to bring awareness of this disease.
Leaving everything she knows behind, not sure of where she was going or how she will end up, this woman embarked on a journey of new life, new beginnings, and a need to research the disease that brought her here, the disease of a sociopath.
The body of the book features tactics commonly used by a sociopath, whether man or woman. These tactics are used over and over again as witnessed in research. The body of the book includes the unfolding of pieces of one woman's true story while the research and evidence help to build credibility and style to the book. From love bombing to gas lighting and everything in between, the specific tactics documented in these chapters wrapped by a true story to help others identify and spot a sociopath since evidence shows that one in 25 people is a clinical sociopath. The research is staggering and as this book demonstrates, there is a great need and desire to understand the mind of a person without a conscience. This has been covered in the media, the movies, and is fraught with despair by those that have been touched.
The conclusion of this book deals with the road to recovery, life after a sociopath, and resources for those who have been touched by a sociopath. The book is my own personal story written without names to protect my children, but it is based on a true story and is written with all the passion, purpose, and might a mother can have. I spared no details. The book is raw and explicit in its details of how sociopaths work.

Interesting, but no great depth
This,was an interesting book, however it had sections that were quite repetitive and the narration/audio did not seem professionally produced (a lot of audible breathing, lipsmacking and ambient noise).
