You can't always avoid becoming a manipulator's target, but you CAN
avoid becoming a victim. This revealing book gives you the power to
resist the people who want to control you. Who is pushing your
buttons—and what can you do about it? Coping with Control and
Manipulation: Making the Difference Between Being a Target and
Becoming a Victim examines the various spheres in which people
encounter control and manipulation and shows how avoiding such
victimization is absolutely possible. Knowing the players,
understanding what motivates them, identifying their goals, and
learning the techniques they use can help potential victims avoid,
or at least survive, control and manipulation attempts. In her
comprehensive look at this potentially harmful human drive,
clinical psychologist Vera Sonja Maass shows just how prevalent
control and manipulation are. She examines manipulators' goals and
techniques as they relate to personality structure and offers a
"menu" of techniques commonly used to exercise control. Arming
readers through an in-depth analysis of controllers' behaviors
toward targeted persons, Dr. Maass enables such targets to predict
future actions—and prepare responses that will prevent
victimization.
