Born a Psycho: a TED Psychologist's Journey into Brain Crime

It's so funny that a scientist is actually a psychopath, and he has exactly the same brain scan as a criminal. He traced his family history and found out that his family genes had a long history of crime, and his ancestors were worried. But because he grew up in a loving family and his parents and relatives gave him enough love, he did not grow crooked. It seems that the living environment of a child from an early age plays a crucial role in shaping his future character.

A very good book. It not only popularizes science, but aside from talking about very interesting topics, it can also make people think about education and life. Sometimes we can live a better life only if we pay more attention to ourselves and the environment in which we grow. It's very inspiring. After reading it, I feel like I look at myself from a different perspective. For example, why I don't know how to socialize with others. If I think about it carefully, my parents were also like this. Also, why is it easy for me to gain weight [face covering]? There is no thin person in my family. Think about it, my ancestors lived in such a natural environment and it was not easy for them to gain weight. In short, things that I couldn't understand before have now become my own nature. It doesn't mean that I have to break things, stop interacting with others, and stop losing weight. But after understanding it, you can make better use of your own nature, and at the same time, you can reconcile with yourself. If interpersonal communication is not good, socialize more with honest people, communicate more with others, etc.

The book is very good, but I don't know why I cry when reading this kind of book (´;;`)?

It's a very good book. As a scientist, the author explains most of the facts. Although there are some concealments, it is very useful for reference. It's time for China's family education to be reformed

It's an interesting book. It tells the story of a psychologist who reflects on whether he is a psychopath. There are many small details that are very suitable for me to use to create the characters in my novel. But no matter what, the biggest inspiration this book gave me is this sentence: "... I discovered a fact that I wouldn't have believed five years ago: a truly good upbringing can defeat deficient genes."

The only shortcoming of this book is that each paragraph is too long, and it is easy to fall asleep while reading it. This is Tomato, please. After reading the brief introduction of this book, the author's Cornell family lineage, the history of murder in this lineage and his process of doing EEG on himself are very interesting parts of this book.

The content of this book is so interesting! The author James Fallon tells his family history in a self-deprecating way, allowing us to see the impact of the environment on people. His writing style is straightforward and vivid, making it easier for me to understand complex psychological knowledge. And he dares to explore his inner world, which is really brave! I think this book not only allows us to understand psychopathy, but also makes us think about our own lives.

You can learn a lot of knowledge, and it can also teach us how to deal with the dark side that sometimes appears in our hearts.
