In Sheep's Clothing
In Sheep's Clothing: Understanding and Dealing with Manipulative People | George K. Simon
4 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
Modern permissiveness and the new culture of entitlement allows disturbed people to reach adulthood without proper socialization. In a book meant both for the general public and for professionals, bestselling author and psychologist George Simon explains in plain English: -How most disturbed characters think. -The habitual behaviors the disturbed use to avoid responsibility and to manipulate, deceive, and exploit others. -Why victims in relationships with disturbed characters do not get help they need from traditional therapies. -A straightforward guide to recognizing and understanding all relevant personality types, especially those most likely to undermine relationships. -A new framework for making sense of the crazy world many find themselves in when there's a disturbed character in their lives. -Concrete principles that promote responsibility and positive change when engaging disturbed characters. -Tactics (for both lay persons and therapists) to lessen the chances for victimization and empower those who would otherwise be victims in their relationships with many types of disturbed characters.

Enjoyed this one, it was interesting to learn about the different personality disorders and how they manifest. I enjoyed the stories shared by the author which is a psychologist. His advices are good, but I think that the 48 Laws of Power is a way more useful on the tricks manipulative people use. But I recommended this book regardless.

Because I have some manipulative people in my life that I have a hard time dealing with, my son recommended this book. Has anyone read it? If so, was it helpful? Just a swamp picture.

Eggs This sounds good 👌🏻 6y

Good insight into self absorbed people. Helpful in understanding office politics.
