In many situations an accompanying PhD in psychology or neuroscience would be useful. EDIT - I'm throttled (I imagine due to comments like the following), so cannot reply below: > Nobody needs a phd to understand that circumstances and chance have a much bigger influence... Some depth in psychology and neurology can also help one realize that you do not actually know the thoughts and abilities of other people - rather, this is how the mind evolved to perceive and model the external world (persons, etc), and how the subconscious communicates predictions based on that model to the conscious mind. So, I maintain my assertion that an understanding of how the mind (that which most substantially differentiates us from all other living things) works has great utility.
