OF THE
TIMES
Today as never before we need to comprehend the course, logic, and path of the process of history. Every day we need to make decisions that will affect future generations. It has become obvious that no single nation, confession, social class or even civilization can solve these problems on its own. We increasingly have to listen to one another: Europe and Asia, Christians and Muslims, White and Black peoples, citizens of modern democratic states and places where traditional society survives. The key is to understand one another correctly, avoid hasty conclusions, and acquire the true spirit of tolerance and respect toward those with different value systems, habits, and norms.

There are some really interesting topics in this book. One experiment is mentioned where a group people who tested high on psychopathy and another group who tested low were shown videos of woman's gates (walking) and asked which ones were the weakest (picking prey). All of the psychos picked the same women. Would be really interesting to get these videos and see the body language of those they picked.
Psychos also tested unusually accurate on picking out people who were "guilty" of hiding a scarf. Would be interesting to dig into these types of studies.
The book also made valid points about how psychopaths have advantages over the rest of us due to our insecurities, anxieties and unwillingness to take risks. It doesn't suggest that people take risks that endanger others, of course.
The book did suggest however, that psychos make great surgeons and explosive ordinance types etc. Not sure about you but I will pass on the psycho surgeon.
