Dark Psychology and Manipulation: How to Detect Manipulative Techniques and Use the Secrets of Persuasion, Emotional Intelligence, and NLP to Your Advantage

Written by Zac Adams

Narrated by Mara Walker

Are you tired of having the wool pulled over your eyes? Do you feel that people are always taking advantage of you or your relationships are superficial and fake? Are you ready to stand against those who think they can manipulate and take advantage of you?

If you answered yes to any of the following statements, this book is for you. Why? 

Dark Psychology and Manipulation is a book that draws attention to the manipulating and persuasive behavior of those around us who choose to use them to further hidden motives. 

From the workplace to your home, with your colleagues, friends, or family, we sometimes want to believe that those who care about us would never manipulate us. The sad reality is, sometimes, it is those who are closest that take advantage of the kind-hearted. In Dark Psychology and Manipulation, we discuss the techniques that make up the facet of dark psychology, including persuasion, manipulation, and coercion. As you read on, I explain methods of identifying deceit and manipulation, and I provide helpful techniques on how to protect yourself from further being a victim. 

I want to show you how you can use manipulation, persuasion, and coercion for good. I also discuss how you can turn the tables on the very people who thought they could take advantage of you.

Learn about…

• The mentality of a manipulator 
• Psychological Triad (Narcissism, Machiavellianism, and Psychotherapy) 
• Emotional intelligence
• Persuasion and influence 
• Turning the tables on the manipulator to benefit you

Take a stand, and turn the tables on anyone seeking to cause you harm. I have created Dark Psychology and Manipulation as an easy to read guide to stop the negativity toxicity that comes from those who believe in manipulation, persuasion, and narcissism to get what they want.

Reviews for Dark Psychology and Manipulation

[Elijah · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Great and interesting content


Great book offering applied ways and solutions for people subjected to manipulation. Most of the books on this topic just make a "state of the art" exposing the facts, I found this book went beyond by proposing psychological techniques to defend oneself against dark psychology. I also appreciated the scientific references.

Finally a good one on the subject


Really good book here that would show you the ropes and teach you how to point out manipulative techniques. You will learn how to identify key actions and how to pick out certain things from what someone says to you, making you a better listener and more aware of people.

An incredible audiobook


It's very informative and interesting to listen. It introduces dark psychology both theoretically and practically. It's very well-thought to include the contents for victims or potential victims, like how to avoid and protect against manipulation. Also, introduces how to apply dark psychology in life and work situations. Recommend.
