Anna Motz, Consultant Forensic Psychologist, Author of A Love that Kills
Jessica Yakeley, a deeply experienced psychoanalyst and psychiatrist, gives us the most lucid and compelling introduction to the antisocial individual that has ever been penned. Psychoanalysis, like no other theory, helps us understand how their minds work, and there has never been a more important historical moment for such clarity.
