Between Power and Perversion

Manipulation is a form of influence over others that seeks to achieve a hidden, often unacknowledged objective. It has operated behind the scenes of power since the dawn of time and is also the preferred relational mode of what is known as perversion.

Who manipulates?
Why?
How is manipulation used to gain power over others?
And how far can manipulation go?

In her latest book, the author contextualizes research in clinical and social psychology on methods of control and submission, and explains the connections between manipulation, perversion, narcissism, and power.

Through practical examples, helpful tips, and essential guidelines, readers will learn to recognize and understand the mechanisms of manipulation at play across all areas of life—whether in the family, romantic relationships, the workplace, business, advertising, media, and beyond.

READERSHIP: Postgraduates of psychology, clinical and occupational psychologists, students in business schools (marketing).
