Review & Description
We live in a world where we have the misfortune of encountering and dealing with manipulative individuals, groups or organisations. Every day and in every walk of life; in our work, in the media, businesses and politics, we are constantly faced with these scheming individuals whose main aim is to get what they want through deceptive, dishonest, exploitative ways, even if it means crushing every person whom they deem an obstacle in obtaining their goals. This book is designed to fight back. It provides an insight into the mind-set of such individuals and then offers a practical and strategic manual to break them down. These strategic components are derived from literature, military tactics, lessons from history, business strategies, psychology and science; from the quotations and tactics of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, Genghis Khan and Alexander the Great, to those of Oscar Wilde, Winston Churchill, Henry Ford and Bill Clinton; from strategies deployed by ancient cultures and religious establishments to modern-day companies such as Toyota and Johnson & Johnson; from early historical events such as Hannibal's capture of Italy, the Crusades and the French Revolution, to modern wars such as WWII, The Cold War and The Iraq War; from evolution and basic human emotions to the present scientific advances made in the fields of human behaviour and the understanding of brain function. The book brings together this diverse knowledge to create guiding principles which will equip you with the necessary, simple, practical tactics, and strategies to turn the tables around, to wage a discreet and invisible war against these malicious, deceitful, and devious individuals - in essence, to manipulate the manipulators.
