Description
Jon Ronson embarks on a provocative and often darkly humorous investigation into the world of psychopathy, questioning the very definitions of madness. His journey takes him from the corridors of power to the confines of psychiatric institutions, exploring the "madness industry" and the individuals who populate it. Ronson delves into the lives of alleged psychopaths, from CEOs to criminals, and the experts who diagnose them, uncovering surprising truths about the nature of sanity and the blurred lines between normal and abnormal. This compelling exploration challenges our perceptions and reveals how easily ordinary people can be labeled and defined by their perceived eccentricities.
