Guggenbühl-Craig aims to help identify psychopaths, to protect themselves from them, and to understand their suffering. The author reviews the field, gives an explanation of the main symptoms, suggests an approach to treatment, and then presents a new vision: psychopathy is not so much a deficiency of morality as it is crippled Eros.

Adolf Guggenbühl-Craig exposes many of the hypocrisies and idiocies of conventional psychology by looking at the profession from a refreshing but somewhat paradoxical view. By taking the “wrong side” of many politically and psychologically “correct” positions, the author brings new light and ideas to a mired rather than admired profession. With a commentary on Guggenbühl’s work and thought by the Jungian psychologist Sidney Handel.
