Sinossi

Insanity Defense Scope explores the intricate intersection of law and psychology, examining when a person's mental state absolves them of criminal responsibility. The book delves into the evolution of legal standards for the insanity defense, such as the M'Naghten Rule, which focuses on whether the accused understood the nature and quality of their act, and the Irresistible Impulse Test, which considers whether the accused could control their actions. It also highlights how societal views on mental illness influence the application of these standards in criminal justice.

 
The book meticulously analyzes landmark cases across various jurisdictions, revealing inconsistencies and challenges in applying the insanity defense. It uses court transcripts and expert witness testimonies to illustrate the complexities of diagnosing mental illness in a legal context.

 
Progressing from historical context to practical applications, Insanity Defense Scope concludes with potential reforms for a more consistent and evidence-based approach, making it valuable for legal and psychology professionals.

Psychopaths - Unraveling the...

Coral Nunez

Psychopathy is a personality disorder characterized by a lack of empathy, manipulative behavior, and a disregard for social norms. While often associated with violent criminals, not all psychopaths engage in illegal activities. Many live among us, blending into society while exhibiting traits that set them apart. Understanding psychopathy requires examining its defining characteristics, how it differs from other disorders, and how it has been studied over time.
At the core of psychopathy is a profound emotional deficit. Psychopaths struggle to feel deep emotions such as guilt, remorse, or love. While they can mimic emotions to manipulate others, their reactions are often shallow and insincere. This emotional disconnect allows them to deceive, exploit, and harm others without experiencing the moral conflicts that most people do. Their ability to charm and manipulate makes them particularly dangerous, as they can easily gain trust and control over those around them.
A common misconception is that psychopathy and sociopathy are the same. While they share some similarities, they are distinct disorders. Psychopaths are typically more calculated, controlled, and charismatic. They can function in society, often excelling in careers that require persuasion and risk-taking. Sociopaths, on the other hand, are more impulsive and prone to emotional outbursts, making it harder for them to maintain stable relationships or careers. These differences highlight why some psychopaths remain undetected, while sociopaths are more likely to be caught for reckless behavior.
