Description: Machiavellians, better known as "master manipulators," are hardwired to lie, cheat, scheme, and betray. Compared to narcissists and psychopaths, they are poorly understood. But they are more numerous and can be just as destructive. From day to day, you'll encounter Machiavellian master manipulators, many times without even realizing it. At last there's a book that peels away their mask of deception and reveals the truth about these predators. Machiavellians: Gulling the Rubes explores the psychology of master manipulators, shows you how to recognize them, and reveals how you can beat them at their own game. Psychologist Dale Hartley introduces the Mach-20 test of Machiavellianism which anyone can take and score. He explains how you can outwit these amoral and conniving opportunists using "MADAR" - Machiavellian Advance Detection and Resistance - a set of skills and tactics you'll find invaluable. Master manipulators see other people as "rubes," ripe for exploitation. With this book you'll never be caught unprepared again. Based on Dr. Hartley's popular Psychology Today blog, this book features true cases of schemers, swindlers, stalkers, seducers, pathological liars, and con artists told in an entertaining narrative style. These true tales - some funny, some tragic, and some outrageous - reveal the truth about Machiavellian personalities.
