'Pathological Altruism' is a groundbreaking new book - the first to explore the negative aspects of altruism and empathy seemingly uniformly positive traits. In fact, pathological altruism, in the form of an unhealthy focus on others to the detriment of one's own needs, may underpin some personality disorders.
