Many of them may well be described with the term Machiavellian. Such individuals disrespect moral principles deceive their fellow beings and take advantage of others frailty and gullibility. They have a penetrating rational and sober mind undisturbed by emotions. At times we cannot help but be enchanted by their talent even though we know they misuse it. Recent studies have revealed that Machiavellians possess a complex set of abilities and motivations. This insightful book examines the complexities of the Machiavellian trait in relation to attitude behaviour and personality. By integrating results and experiences from social personality cognitive and evolutionary psychology Tam's Bereczkei explores the characteristics of Machiavellianism (such as social intelligence deception manipulation and lack of empathy) and the causes and motives guiding Machiavellian behaviour. The author also demonstrates how Machiavellianism is related to strategic thinking and flexible long - term decisions rather than to a short - term perspective as previously thought and explores Machiavellianism in relation to the construct of the Dark Triad. The first comprehensive psychological book on Machiavellianism since Christie and Geis pioneering work in 1970, Machiavellianism summarises the most important research findings over the last few decades. This book is fascinating reading for students and researchers of psychology and related courses as well as professionals dealing with Machiavellians in their work and practice.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Machiavellianism The Psychology Of Manipulation\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Bereczkei Tamas\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Taylor \u0026amp; Francis Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781138093317\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 158 Pages, 5 Line Drawings, Black And White; 10 Halftones, Black And White\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 12\/15\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: The Self, Ego, Identity, Personality","brand":"Bereczkei Tamas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49613649871153,"sku":"IN-G-9781138093317","price":63.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781138093317.jpg?v=1724607675","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781138093317-machiavellianism-the-psychology-of-manipulation","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
