If you are bored and unfulfilled by dry and overly worthy self-help manuals, then this is the book for you! Read this and take a very different look at yourself!

Former SAS hero Andy McNab and eminent psychologist Professor Kevin Dutton are unlikely partners. As Oxford academic and bestselling author of The Wisdom of Psychopaths, Kevin Dutton has plenty of experience of psychopaths, but he’d never met anyone quite like Andy McNab, decorated war hero and special forces warrior. And although they took very different paths on their roads through life, their personal stories are remarkably similar.

Together they decided to explore the subject of the psychopathic condition using a unique combination of McNab’s personal experiences of 20 years in the army and Dutton’s ability to analyse them. In their words, McNab pulls the trigger, Dutton explains why the gun goes bang!

This book sets out to answer two main questions: What is a GOOD PSYCHOPATH? And how can you use the positive attributes of that psychology to be the ‘best that you can be’ In order to do so, they have created a Psychopath Manifesto, an alternative set of rules for life, which begins by asking ‘what do you really want from life’ and ‘what does success look like to you’?

It then offers a candid and penetrating insight into those questions viewed using Dutton’s expertise through the prism of Andy McNab’s wild and various career. It aims to provide an unusual and entertaining roadmap to self-fulfillment whether in your personal life, your business life or your social life.

Andy McNab (Author)
From the day he was found in a carrier bag on the steps of Guy's Hospital in London, Andy McNab has lead an extraordinary life.

As a teenage delinquent, Andy McNab kicked against society. As a young soldier he waged war against the IRA in the streets and fields of South Armagh. As a member of 22 SAS he was at the centre of covert operations for nine years – on five continents. During the Gulf War he commanded Bravo Two Zero, a patrol that, in the words of his commanding officer, 'will remain in regimental history for ever'. Awarded both the Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) and Military Medal (MM) during his military career, McNab was the British Army's most highly decorated serving soldier when he finally left the SAS.

Since then Andy McNab has become one of the world’s bestselling writers, drawing on his insider knowledge and experience. As well as three nonfiction bestsellers including Bravo Two Zero, the bestselling British work of military history, he is the author of the bestselling Nick Stone thrillers. He has also written a number of books for children.

Besides his writing work, he lectures to security and intelligence agencies in both the USA and UK , works in the film industry advising Hollywood on everything from covert procedure to training civilian actors to act like soldiers and he continues to be a spokesperson and fundraiser for both military and literacy charities.
