Superficial and has a very dated feel to it.
Although the book is informative on a basic level I felt that it was very repetative and overly reliant on padding out with examples of psychopathy from films, ancient crimes, and the authors personal history of working with criminals. he kept on referring to the Psychopathy Checklist, sometimes as much as four or five times on a single page. The book is a useful primer on the subject but it really does not have much depth to it. it was so lighweight that it could easily be read in a day, and had a distinct feel that it could have been written by an undergraduate.
