We can make better decisions by embracing dissent. Dissent forces us to question the status quo, consider more information, and engage in creative decision-making.

Blandt fagfolk er det en almindelig antagelse, at omkring 2-4% af alle mænd er psykopater, mens kun 1% af kvinderne er det, svarende til ca. 2% af befolkningen som helhed.
