Description: What do psychology, psychiatry, and neuroscience tell us about the minds of those whose actions could be described as evil? Renowned psychiatrist Michael H. Stone explores the personality traits and behaviour that lead to criminal behaviour. introducing a 22-level hierarchy of evil based on analysing more than 600 violent criminals. He traces two personality traits across a wide spectrum of evil behaviour: narcissism, as seen in criminals who are so self-centred that they have little or no ability to care about their victims; and aggression, the use of power over another to inflict humiliation, suffering, and death. Dr. Stone shows how an increased understanding of the causes of evil can affect the justice system and proposes possible options for treatment and intervention. In a new epilogue, he calls attention to the emergence of "New Evil" and an increase in criminally psychopathic behaviour since 1960.
