A partir de la figura de Luigi Mangione —el estudiante acusado de asesinar al CEO de la mayor aseguradora sanitaria de Estados Unidos y convertido en icono de deseo por miles de seguidores en todo el mundo—, este libro analiza la oscura fascinación que despiertan los criminales bellos y seductores, así como las implicaciones psicológicas, culturales, sociales y legales de convertirlos en un sex-symbol pop. El ensayo recorre el inquietante cruce entre belleza y crimen, para mostrar cómo el atractivo físico puede alterar nuestra percepción de la justicia y del mal mismo.

lf a man cannot stand freedom, he will probably turn fascist. This, in the fewest possible words, is the essential argument in this modem classic, Escape from Freedom. The author, Erich Fromm, is a distinguished psychologist, late of Berlin and Heidelberg, now of New York City.

Since Darwin's day, we've been told that sexual monogamy comes naturally to our species. Mainstream science - as well as religious and cultural institutions - has maintained that men and women evolved in families in which a man's possessions and protection were exchanged for a woman's fertility and fidelity. But this narrative is collapsing....

The Psychopath Test is a fascinating journey through the minds of madness. Jon Ronson's exploration of a potential hoax being played on the world's top neurologists takes him, unexpectedly, into the heart of the madness industry. An influential psychologist who is convinced that many important CEOs and politicians are, in fact, psychopaths teaches Ronson how to spot these high-flying individuals by looking out for little telltale verbal and nonverbal clues. And so Ronson, armed with his new psychopath-spotting abilities, enters the corridors of power.

These days, no one in America feels immune to violence. But now, in this extraordinary, groundbreaking book, the nation's leading expert on predicting violent behavior unlocks the puzzle of human violence and shows that, like every creature on earth, we have within us the ability to predict the harm others might do us and get out of its way. Contrary to popular myth, human violence almost always has a discernible motive and is preceded by clear warning signs.

The Sane Society is a continuation and extension of the brilliant psychiatric concepts Erich Fromm first formulated in Escape from Freedom; it is also, in many ways, an answer to Freud’s Civilization and its Discontents. Fromm examines man’s escape into over conformity and the danger of robotism in contemporary industrial society: Modern humanity has, he maintains, been alienated from the world of their own creation. Here Fromm offers a complete and systematic exploration of his “humanistic psychoanalysis.”

When the ashes had settled after World War II and the Allies convened an international war crimes trial in Nuremberg, a psychiatrist, Douglas Kelley, and a psychologist, Gustave Gilbert, tried to fathom the psychology of the Nazi leaders using extensive psychiatric interviews, IQ tests, and Rorschach inkblot tests. Never before or since has there been such a detailed study of governmental leaders who orchestrated mass killings.

Our Political Nature is the first book to reveal the hidden roots of our most deeply held moral values. It shows how political orientations across space and time arise from three clusters of measurable personality traits. These clusters entail opposing attitudes toward tribalism, inequality, and differing perceptions of human nature. Together, these traits are by far the most powerful cause of left-right voting, even leading people to regularly vote against their economic interests.

Why do people dodge responsibility when things fall apart? Why the parade of public figures unable to own up when they screw up? Why the endless marital quarrels over who is right? Why can we see hypocrisy in others but not in ourselves? Are we all liars? Or do we really believe the stories we tell? Backed by years of research and delivered in lively, energetic prose, Mistakes Were Made (But Not by Me) offers a fascinating explanation of self-deception.

How can an art expert differentiate between a fake and an original piece of art within seconds? How can a marriage analyst know within minutes whether the couple will stay together or not? Some ideas like this and much more gain a true resolution in Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking by Malcolm Gladwell.

In Head Strong: Psychology and Military Dominance in the 21st Century, Michael D. Matthews explores the many ways that psychology will make the difference for wars yet to come, from revolutionary advances in soldier selection and training to new ways of preparing soldiers to remain resilient in the face of horror and to engineering the super-soldier of the future. These advancements will ripple out to impact on the lives of all of us, not just soldiers.

An entertaining and revealing look at the science behind the emotion of disgust. Disgust originated to prevent us from eating poisonous food, but this simple safety mechanism has since evolved into a uniquely human emotion that dictates how we treat others, shapes our cultural norms, and even has implications for our mental and physical health.

Let's face it: We all know people who are irrational. No matter how hard you try to reason with them, it never works. So what's the solution? How do you talk to someone who's out of control? What can you do with a boss who bullies, a spouse who yells, or a friend who frequently bursts into tears? In his book Just Listen, Mark Goulston shared his best-selling formula for getting through to the resistant people in your life. Now he brings his communication magic to the most difficult group of all - the downright irrational.

The first book to explore the distinct personality style of the otrovert ― someone who lacks the communal impulse and does not fit in with any social group, regardless of its members ― and to reveal all the advantages of being an otrovert and how otroverts contribute to the world. If you were the kid who never wanted to go to summer camp, if you prefer spending time with friends one-on-one than going to parties, and if you often engage in acts of silent rebellion against group norms and traditions, you are very likely an otrovert.

Il XXI secolo è il secolo della solitudine. Noreena Hertz lo sperimenta in prima persona: a un colloquio di lavoro viene valutata da un algoritmo; un pomeriggio fa shopping con un’"amica del cuore" affittata tramite un servizio online; di sera si trova a sfiorare la pelle artificiale di un robot progettato per essere il suo animale da compagnia. La solitudine che Noreena Hertz racconta non si limita alla frustrazione del desiderio di avere qualcuno vicino; è un male sottile che si è insinuato dentro di noi e ha permeato ogni aspetto della nostra società.

Heather Christle è come tutti noi: piange. Spesso, in alcuni momenti della vita; poco, in altri. Come capita a tutti, fin da quando siamo piccoli. Piangiamo per gli amici scomparsi e per i figli che nascono, crescono, giocano sul tappeto di casa. A volte, piangiamo senza motivo. A volte, piangiamo per troppi motivi. Ci ricordiamo tutte le lacrime versate, i pianti a dirotto, i singhiozzi? No, con tutta probabilità. Ma cosa direbbero, di noi e della vita, quei pianti, se potessimo riscostruirne la storia e la geografia?
