Yazıçı psixoloq peşəsinin verdiyi təcrübədən də yararlanaraq bu kitabda beynimizdə olan müəyyən mexanizmləri təsvir edir, hansı ki, biz fərqində olmadan belə digər insanlar tərəfindən bizə təsir göstərmək üçün istifadə oluna bilər. Kitabın hər fəsli fərqli bir mexanizmə dəyinir, və bu barədə olan elmi araşdırmalardan tut, gündəlik həyatda baş verən hadisələrə qədər misallar çəkir. Kitab bir balaca elmi dildə yazılsa da rahat başa düşülən və axıcıdır. Bu kitabı oxuyanda bir daha gördüm ki, sizə bir şeylər satmağa cəhd edən insanlardan həmişə çəkinmək lazımdır :)
