Fascinating!!!. It provided insight into my father's mind, and forced me to take a closer look into my own.

Good book only for people with knowledge of psychiatry. Im going to read a little of this book to See her perspective. I did want to Note that "Sociopath is labeled as A personality disorder" its in a Category with narcissism and Borderline personality Disorder. Usually More men have sociopath tendencies Than women. I do agree though with Some i question her diagnosis . I see so far more narcissism & Borderline. I will comment again After i read some. Thanks *Update after reading a little: Yes this Person if they even exist does have sociopathic tendencies and people with This type of disorder have 2 track minds. As stated above this book will be Only interesting to people interested In psych or have intermediate knowledge Of psych or criminology. And sociopaths Are attention seeking. I would have to Read the whole book to see where this leads. There are different types of Sociopaths i believe in our society that Think differently but have their motives For what classifies them for the Diagnosis given. And sociopaths are Usually very intelligent and logical And most have high IQ's.

Boring. Boring

Expectations. If you're expecting blood or horrors this isn't it. It's more of an insight to a psychopath's mindset and thinking patterns. If you are interested in psych and have an open mind it is very stimulating, but it's definitely not for all readers. It's implications of her arguments are as well.

confessions of a sociopath. Being also a Mormon, a Mormon Bishop twice but having my own difficulties in the wiring of the brain department I would so much love to meet M.E., and have a pleasant discussion of life and its challenges we face. This book has helped me and given me comfort. Thank you M.E.

Confessions of a Sociopath. I expected this book to be fascinating, but instead I found it to be largely uninteresting. The author talks about how intelligent she is, but I found her mind to be like a two track road compared to a superhighway. Because of her disorder, her thinking is so narrow that the book read like a constant repeat of the same information. I did finish it, but it was difficult.

I called her, Professor. I had the author as my professor right before her book was released. In reading the book, I am finding myself thinking back on those experiences. She was always nice, though there was something a bit off about her. There was something sexually stimulating about her--for both the men and women in her classes. Perhaps had I read the book (without knowing that the author was my professor) I could have pinpointed her behavior as sociopathic instead of just labeling her as nice, but odd. After meeting her personally, I can't help but wonder if the experiences that she lays out in the book aren't exaggerated to the point that even others involved wouldn't recognize them. I worry that in publishing this book she has opened herself up to attack from "normal" people and sociopaths alike. I hope for her sake that she she doesn't become the target of sociopathic people. Particularly as her true identity is revealed.

Attention seeking. While the author most likely does have maladjustment issues and a personality disorder, I seriously doubt she is a sociopath!

Top notch. Brilliant, insightful & eloquently written. This is a book, a memoir, that should be referenced, remembered & even taught. I will recommend this to anyone with curiosity or misunderstanding about what it means to be "sociopathic" or even to get a glimpse of psychological "dysfunctions" in general, if one can open their mind enough to realize their own "dysfunctions" & those in all the people of the world. There is no true "normal" psychological profile that can be proven. There are many facets of different ends & corners of the psychological spectrum & everyone, no matter how "normal", has at least some glimmering facet reflecting a perceived "dysfunction." This is an A+ read, & even at times an oddly heart warming story. I was sad to reach the end, but so happy I found this. Thank you M.E. Thomas!!

I love this book.. It was pure pleasure .

Fascinating !. Shame on the people who rated this book poorly because they did not like the person the author authentically revealed herself to be. Despite their obvious hypocrisy, these people apparently feel morally superior to the author. Oh the irony ! If you want an honest look into the mind and life experience of a sociopath, past the practically universally inaccurate stereotypes, this is book will provide that. Most striking I find is the theme of fear the author has about the potential consequences on her life, career, etc if she is "outed" as a sociopath. I have some good friends that also fear people finding out that they are homosexuals, even married to same sex partners (I live in Canada). No wonder the author sees her book primarily as a way of advocating that society be more open minded about sociopaths. Perhaps in the future that will change. A primary difference between humans and lesser mammals is that lesser mammals have proportionately larger amygdalas (emotional centres) to their overall brain mass. They are more given to emotional responses perhaps because the reaction speed can be faster. Fright to flight. Interestingly sociopaths have proportionately smaller amygdalas than non-sociopath humans. Perhaps instead of being "monsters" for being different and less emotional, are they possibly more evolved humans than the rest of us? Star Trek fans have long admired the lack of emotions with which Spock and other Vulcans conduct themselves. Vulcans are guided by logic, cause-effect, risk-reward. Text-book sociopaths ! So why do people idolize the fictional race of Vulcans yet have nothing but contempt, distrust, and fear for sociopaths in the real world?

Confessions of a sociopath. This book is nothing more than a woman who likes to talk without really telling you anything, and a way for her to make money. A lot of the book contains studies done by others and research done by others. This author really is just a self important woman who's ego is way out of control. I saw her on Dr. Phil before I read the book and I thought she was just a woman with an ego that is out of control, it was confirmed in her book. Save yourself the amount of the book and use it toward something useful. Don't line her pockets like I did. Not worth the read.
