Unlike people who are trying to influence, persuade or convince others, manipulators work with unfair means to
get what they want. They do not respect the personal rights of their victims. They violate the victim's integrity,
work with hidden agendas and deliberately use dishonest tricks like faulty reasoning, coercion, blackmail and
lying in an attempt to control the victim's actions.
Manipulation is about suiting the manipulator's advantage or purpose only, often at the expense of the victim. Yet,
it is often difficult to know when you are being manipulated: manipulators do all they can to convince you that
you are the one who is to benefit most from their actions and that they are acting in good faith. If we were aware
that we are being manipulated, would we allow ourselves to fall victim to it - and how would we defend ourselves
against it? That is where this book comes in handy: it explains the tricks manipulators use and teaches you how to
best defend and protect yourself.
