New Yorker Feature

               An article from the November 10th issue of  The New Yorker magazine turned out to be an interesting read. The article delves into psychopathy; at first glance, I actually read the deck of the article wrong, and thought it said "psychotherapy", but after reading into the story a bit, I caught on to the actual subject. While that may not seem very interesting, the article brought up interesting points, such as that lots of money goes into research for schizophrenia, which is a contributing cause of crime, but not much funding or research goes into psychopathy, which causes more crime on average than schizophrenia. The article goes in the history of psychopathy, as well as the science and psychological research behind the matter; all of which is encompassed in a scenes around a prison where research regarding the mental disease is conducted. The writer even has a personal experience where he gets his own brain scanned in the same way that research patients get theirs. The article in general was just written in an easily understood manner and it flowed together so that the time to took to read it didn't seem to last a lifetime.
