A book closer to truth than any ever written
Since i start with this title i will try to explain myself as best as possible. So.A) Observations about humanity are absolutely correct. No matter which angle you might try to see things from. Look around you. Cruelty towards animals, hate crimes, destruction of the environment, wars for profit, low-level of education, unjust and exploitative governments. The list could go on. So the author proposes instead of using the same old techniques of ''trying to be better'' to help the destruction along as much and as fast as we can. That way the species can reach the end sooner and destroy itself or mutate into something better. Why is he right? Because every time humans decide to change something for the better it always ends up as control and destruction of enemies(killing, raping of women, destruction of lives) I don't want this to continue. Do you? Or would you do whatever it takes to stop it? Can you?B) Law of the self. By this the author means what can we do about ourselves inside this world we live in. What can you do among this destruction? First try not to be as self-destructive as the rest. Yes it is in your nature as a human but you should try to change it. On that note self-destruction includes a lot of things. Those people who try will understand. Second point is be independent. In all ways. Don't bind yourself to anything. Except things that really benefit you. This might be a profession that you actually like. Or people with value. It's your responsibility to find out. Third point responsibility then. If you are not responsible you are not free really. Think about it.C1) No dogma. As simple as it sounds the most difficult thing to do of all. The author warns about this. Do not turn into a True Believer by reading this book. That is make your own experiences and your own observations. Add something to it and remove the parts that don't work for you(there are some but not a lot) Do you want to live a life that you actually know what you are doing or live in a world of fantasy? If you know that a piece of technology or a tool works a certain way what would you do? You would use it the RIGHT way. Does this apply to yourself, your family, your friends, your co-workers, groups of people, societies in fact the whole world? Yes it does. Of course if you don't want to you can just believe in something you actually like. No harm in that right? Except us of course..C2) Exercises and tests. Just do these. No questions no excuses. These will help you to keep perspective and not become dogmatic. Some are really beneficial to you. Some are not. Remember that you are not a unique snowflake but a monkey among monkeys. Do you want to be more? Prove it!D) What i consider negatives about this book. First of at most points the negativity of the author when referring to normal people. This is overstated. This is done with a purpose of course. Still if i wrote the book i would do the exact same thing with more...tact. Second point. The book is a little bit chaotic. I can forgive doctor Hyatt because he does write that ''i wrote the book the way i wanted to write it''. And i think to some extent i think this is done with a purpose again. Still i would be a little more organized especially at the first part of the book.Last PartWARNINGFirst of all a thing i wanted to write about most of the other reviewers. This is not a book for homo normalis. Homo normalis is interested in his status quo which means he wants to keep his life as it is and himself as it is. So negative reactions about this book comes from them. That part of me is officially dead after understanding what Hyatt is writing about and how not to lie to myself anymore about it. And this book by my observation(of actual people in real life)is also NOT for (i''ll use 2 phrases i hear all the time) ''dedicated occultists''(egomaniacs?) and ''occult types''. Also one of my terms this book is not for ''occult (pseudo)intellectuals''(airheads?)All in all this is not just another book you've read that will add something to your weirdness and you can feel cooler(for the first types)and not just another book that ''might'' help you or another book that you reviewed on amazon because you are an author or a reviewer(for the second types)not everything is in our heads. This is not a book you review this is not a book that helps your narcissism. And if your question is why do i review this book then? Have i reviewed any other book on amazon or anywhere else? The answer is no. Why then this book? That's for you to think about. I believe(yes this word) that this book is written for the mutants(i wonder what your DNA says about you. Have you done any MRI scans lately?) People who don't belong in any group anywhere(as Hyatt says) to help them not be destroyed by society. And only people such as these(the unique ones though NOT the attention seekers and narcissists)will get anything out of it. That's good because they deserve a chance more than the rest. Last thing is a part i want to warn about. Some people have gone crazy with this book at least 2 of Hyatt's colleagues(that i know of)and one person that I know personally. So watch out for yourself out there and tread carefully because most of the time our worst enemy is our own mind turned against us. Thank you for reading(any questions or comments are welcome both positive or negative)

A true guide for the psychopath
A great guide for the psychopath who has come to terms on who he is. The author succeeds at guiding the psychopath through the perils of the world. A psychopath who hasn’t conquered himself can end up dead or in prison. Most people (the simps) will give a bad review because they are plagued by feelings rather than logic. Good luck when you end up divorced, in child support, or ripped off by those who professed to love you. This book could have shown you how to spare yourselves. Hopefully you think about that while you are in court emotionally suffering.

Changing the world one lunatic at a time
Written by a true individual for those unafraid to live honestly. It’s all subjective, my friend.

SELF ESTEEM ISSUES?
Reeducate yourself, learn to put yourself first, dont need to go overboard and become an egomaniac they are just annoying. Particularly like the end where it explains fields in which to be accomplished - to be a complete person., answerable to nobody. Women should read this, become equal, stop being wishy washy, stand proud,EQUAL not subservient , be respected and no need to be butch either, a proud woman in her own right..

No
Not advanced theoretical thinking to be sure . Not my cup of tea . Read for curiosity, did not get very far . I have studied academic philosophy and though I am not a brilliant person by any means, with all undue respect, neither is this . I'll keep morality, thanks . Would recommend Max Stirner or Nietzche to someone interested in this topic . But not this . Sounds like a teen wrote it after drinking coffee for the first time .

Not for those who enjoyed public school
If you are a person who questions everything, if you are a person who wants more out of life than the american dream, this is an ideal place to start.

Not worth your time
There are much better written and more interesting books about psychopaths out there. Written 'for the psychopath', this book is not charming, not witty, not even interesting.

I was Disappointed
I was disappointed with this book. I had previously read CSH's "Undoing Yourself" and found it interesting and I watched him speaking in a few Youtube vids where he comes across as an odd, rather cold eccentric but with some interesting views that are worth hearing. The Psychopath's Bible however is rather dull and uninspired, some would say unpleasant. I wouldn't say don't read but don't expect too much.
