I'm maybe only 20-30 minutes into
@d07dcd9e…edfc8322's first episode on psychopathic rulers, but he does a great job of distinguishing between psychopathy and psychosis. I'll definitely finish this episode and the follow-up he's released just recently.
However, I thought those interested in such topics might enjoy a few other, related books that I'm currently working through:
1. 5 Types of People Who Can Ruin Your Life
Bill Eddy, a social worker, defines what Narcissists and Sociopaths are and goes on to explain his own category of 'High-Conflict Personalities'. He's built something of a career on defining this HCP category and teaching others how to deal with them

2. The Sociopath Next Door
Dr. Martha Stout expertly weaves her teachings on sociopathy with vivid, living examples of who sociopaths are and what they do.
https://bookwyrm.social/book/217491/s/the-sociopath-next-…
I've not finished either yet, but I think both works help to give us a clear image of the types of people we're dealing with on a daily basis, particularly those in leadership (whether in business or in government).
