How to Deal with Crazy People
Summary
We've all seen them. The people who walk to the beat of a different drummer. We've shook our heads and wondered just what they were thinking and why they do what they are doing. We've puzzled over their behaviors, questioned them and in some cases asked them to stop an annoying behavior but they quickly fall right back into the same patterns. It's great when we can watch from afar and not have to deal with these unusual people or we can just close up shop and walk the other way, but unfortunately, these people are a part of our world and cannot be avoided. These crazy people could be in our immediate families or at work. We encounter them at school and at the store, no matter where we go we cannot avoid their crazy behaviors, odd views and somewhat eccentric behaviors. In his book entitled How To Deal With Crazy People author James Wilcox examines in great detail the different types of crazy people that you may encounter in your life and how to deal with them if they cross your path. This list of crazy people includes the following: The Psychopath The Sociopath The Narcissist The people who suffer from: Bipolar disorder Multiple personality disorder Neuroses Hypochondria Post-traumatic stress disorder Avoidant personality disorder Borderline personality disorder Schizotypal personality disorder Passive aggressive behavior Mild autism Depression ADHD Obsessive compulsive disorder Eating disorders And many other disturbances!

Why Women Manipulate Men
Summary
Women have been manipulating men from the beginning of time. But the question that remains unanswered for many is why do women manipulate men? Why is manipulation such a handy tool for women to use when it comes to dealing with their male counterpart? In her book entitled Why Do Women Manipulate Men author Charlize Venter examines in detail why and how women use manipulation to get what they want from men. The goal of this book is to get every reader to look at manipulation holistically, and then make a decision as to how they feel about it. It is not a do it yourself book on manipulation nor is it a lambasting of women for using their manipulation skills. It is a journey of introspection. Whether you are male or female, manipulator or manipulated, I know that you have given this subject some thought. Your perceptions may change as you read it. Throughout the book we look at how manipulation is achieved and why it was needed by women in the past. We look at whether it has a place in modern society, and what men's role has been in its use. It is partly a historical walk with women, partly looking into their psyches to see where manipulation is embedded in them. As a woman, it will give you a good view into why women use manipulation; why it has been used down the centuries and where it is still used today. As a man, it will give you insight into this powerful tool that you feel is used against you. Perhaps, after reading this book, your perceptions will have changed and you will have a kinder view towards why women use manipulation.
