The Psychopath Test – Jon Ronson

My better half is a clinical psychologist so I am very aware of the importance of the DSM-IV, which is perhaps the most significant theme of this amiably rambling book. In characteristically revelatory yet haphazard fashion, Ronson riffs on the presence of psychopathy and other perceived disorders in society, by way of absurd Florida businessmen, Broadmoor and the sad case of whistleblower-turned-fruitloop of David Shayler.

I’m not sure exactly what point was reached, but I thoroughly enjoyed many of the stops while I was on the journey.
