Snakes in Suits

The book; Snakes in Suits: When Psychopaths Go to Work by Paul Babiak and Robert D. Hare is an interesting book http://www.amazon.com/Snakes-Suits-When-Psychopaths-Work/dp/0060837721 that describes and also shows that psychopaths are not the type you see in movies with characters like Hannibal Lector. The “successful” psychopaths are the ones that can even imitate empathy; they can also recognize other psychopaths and collude with them.

Off course this is not just confined to the corporate office environment. The same applies to the “democratic” political system of the West. This reminds me of a quote by Douglas Adams: “Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”

Another excellent book looking more into the political side of psychopaths is; Political Ponerology and can be found on this link: http://redpillpress.com/retail/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=45&zenid=cfd26e78ce90fe90101bf5422b8c7429 and another good reference to this book is here: http://www.signs-of-the-times.org/articles/show/134866-Political+Ponerology

Normally I don’t refer to books in my blog, but I think these books are important for those that need to know for their own protection and knowledge.
