Dark Psychology: Learn the Practical Uses and Defenses of Manipulation, Emotional Influence, Persuasion, Deception, Mind Control, Covert NLP, Brainwashing, and Other Secret Techniques: 1

This book provides all you need to know in terms of what drives people to act so harshly sometimes. Was a real eye opener. Only thing missing were the authors credentials; ie rven he’s not a licensed therapist, it would’ve been nice to know where he got his information.

I had this book for 4 days and have already reached chapter 6. I love this book so much. It has a lot of valuable information of people in this world. Read it and you'll see what I mean. 😁

I couldn't be more disappointed with this obviously self-published and overpriced effort. This book is riddled with syntactical and grammatical errors, so much so that it gave me nightmares contemplating the vapid pointlessness of life and the obvious and glaring issues our lazy education system is causing us all. The bummers about the many writing mistakes are that they damage his credibility even more than the frankly shallow content did. Further, they are entirely fixable and nothing any good editor couldn't handle. Unfortunately, this greedy Machiavellian narcissist hack couldn't be bothered to make such a small effort.As for the subject matter...well...Mr. Sykes failed to unfolded the page offering true insight. Instead he burned the page and pissed on it, no doubt laughing joyfully at the time and money others are sure to waste reading it. He then celebrated the his coming financial success apparently aware that hopeful fools interested in deeper topics, such as myself, will see a well titled effort and give it a random shot...Cha'Ching, I suppose.It seems he impliments the concepts of dark psychology far better than he can describe them.This book was a remedial attempt at best and a complete waste of time and money, which barely teases the possibility of true insight or usefulness to any reader no matter their level of skill or capacity to understand.

I'm sure I read other reviews before purchasing, I just wish I had heeded them. This book is garbage. The information is vague & the writing style is abysmal. I do not believe I have ever read a book written in future tense... no respectable author (or scholar) writes like that. I rarely fail to finish a book once I've started reading, but I am prepared to throw this one right in the recycling. If you are not yet convinced by this & the other reviews, please consider that this book is printed to order (reference last page on the inside cover) & DOES NOT HAVE A PUBLISHER. That speaks volumes.

This is one of the best books I've ever seen on Dark Psychology and it was very informative. I love to learn and it helped me with a lot.
