This was a really interesting listen! It focuses on manipulation, persuasion and psychological influence, which are mostly viewed as negative tools. The author explores how they are tools that can be used ethically to advance your personal goals. I really appreciated the practical advice on how to recognise when someone is attempting to manipulate you, I work in a toxic work environment, so being able to defend myself against things like this is helpful!

An interesting audiobook that explains how to spot manipulation and use persuasion in positive ways. I liked how the author made the ideas easy to understand and focused on ethical use of these techniques. The narration by the author was also very engaging and added a personal touch.

Honestly, I found this audiobook surprisingly practical. It really breaks down those subtle, almost invisible tactics people use, and it's not all doom and gloom – it actually focuses a lot on recognizing them for your own protection. Plus, the way it explained how to use persuasion ethically felt genuinely empowering, not just manipulative. Definitely gave me some tools to feel more confident in my interactions.

This is a good starting point for understanding manipulation and influence. It broke stuff down for me in a way that’s easy to follow, personally I'm new to the topic. The focus stays on using these ideas in a healthy way and knowing what to watch out for if someone’s trying to mess with you - but that does't stop this getting into the wrong hands. I guess the only thing you can do is protect yourself by learning about this stuff.

As someone with a background in psychology, I found this book to be a very general overview of dark psychology and manipulation techniques. While it succeeds in presenting the basic concepts in an accessible way for beginners, it lacks the depth, nuance, and evidence-based discussion that a more advanced reader might expect.

The content often feels oversimplified, and key psychological principles are presented without sufficient context or supporting research. The section on using manipulation “for good” could also benefit from a clearer ethical framework and practical examples grounded in real-life scenarios.

This could serve as an introductory read for those unfamiliar with the topic, but professionals or readers seeking a more scholarly or detailed exploration may find it insufficient.

Basic Introduction, but Lacking Depth and Rigor

The book offers a few interesting concepts about human behavior and how to recognize manipulation tactics, which I found helpful. However, parts of it felt repetitive, and the tone sometimes walked a fine line between self-help and moral gray areas. I appreciated the focus on using these strategies for good and self-protection, but I was hoping for more depth and clarity. A decent listen, but not quite what I expected.
