Manipulation is something we feel uncomfortable discussing because it risks exposing our own weaknesses and also the intentions of a manipulator who might be someone we love. In that context this e-book by Sarah Goldberg makes you face uncomfortable truths headlong.The book starts with an example where a woman is forced into not only changing her original plan but also buy something which she did not need. We can identify with it, because we have definitely faced it at least once in our lives where we walk away promising ourselves to be stronger willed the next time. And the reader’s interest is kept alive by a spattering of such identifiable examples throughout the book.This ebook is interesting right from the word go and I actually completed it without taking a break. More so because the book discusses different relationships from which an individual can get manipulated. By the time I had got through the chapters talking about potential sources of manipulation I was desperate for solutions. And there it was, written in a concise organized manner and you think why didn’t I think of that before?As a self help book I would give it 5 stars!
