You did not apply the same level of research to a different field. MRI studies, of, for instance, extraordinary criminals are going to show significant differences from ordinary people. That does not mean their brains are not trained that way.
And, they did provide evidence, citing at the very start of the blurbs from the book a recent study pointing out evidence that empathy parts of these "sociopath" brains did light up under certain conditions. They simply have more control over them then others. But, so do countless non-criminals who also have to forego ordinary emotions and adrenaline reactions as part of their very civil and very social jobs (like cops, surgeons, soldiers, etc).
Anyway, not sure why you would want to dabble in some other fields and expect the same results without equal level of efforts.
I have dual studied comp sec and psychology, and in both instances, been focused on theory, sure, but also results. (To stave insanity in one instance, and to make a living and have some fun in the other. Won't say which one is which.)
