Description

The Mask of Sanity: An Attempt to Clarify Some Issues About the So-Called Psychopathic Personality by Hervey M. Cleckley This seminal work explores the complex nature of psychopathy, delving into the ways in which individuals with this condition can hide their illness and function "normally" in public. The author's groundbreaking research sheds light on the difficulties in diagnosing and identifying psychopaths, who are able to "mask" their true nature to achieve their ends. Written by Dr. Hervey M. Cleckley, a renowned psychiatrist and professor at the University of Georgia School of Medicine, this book is a foundational text on the subject of psychopathy. First published in 1941, it has undergone revisions over the years, reflecting the author's growing understanding of the condition. This second edition, published in 1950, provides a comprehensive overview of the topic, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in psychology and psychopathology.
