Abuse of weakness and other manipulations

HOW TO UNDERSTAND WHERE INFLUENCE ENDS AND MANIPULATION BEGINS? With an analysis based on years of research and clinical experience, Maria-France Hirigoyen wrote *Abuse of Weakness and Other Manipulations*, a book that, like the author's others, has become a reference on the subject. In this work, Hirigoyen dismantles all the mechanisms of abuse of the defenseless and how it progresses from influence to manipulation; all detailed in language accessible to everyone. The book also offers a broad overview of all types of manipulators, from the most banal to the most fearsome. This book is an indispensable tool for preventing such actions, but also for society to understand how this abuse occurs. Understanding is not only the first step toward being better, but also the best way to prevent it from happening again.
