If I could have given this thing less than one star and still have it register as a rating, I would. This was the most ludicrous collection of misinformation I have read outside of Vermin Supreme's campaign promises (I would still like that pony, though). This author, who does not hide his conservative troglodyte philosophies very well, used the word dark so many times I suspected childhood trauma with a closet and a bogey man. This had all the pertinence of a click bait ad with none of the cute

Poorly written. Author has no Psychology education. He's a martial arts instructor not a psychologist.

This could have been at most a 10 page report and I would have learned just as much…maybe more because the author would have had to be concise and you wouldn’t grow so bored that you miss the few actual informative sentences in the book.
Honestly, this reminded me of one of my college professors. You know the type…they drone on and on and you get nothing out of their lessons, but you’re expected to know the information they were trying to convey when it comes time for the test.

In theory, I'm not at all opposed to an armchair expert self-publishing a book on a subject they're interested in (even if they don't have any actual qualifications) -- which is what Dark Psychology 101 amounts to. But, in practice, this book is overly-broad and unengaging, and you could honestly get most of the information it contains by spending a couple of hours on Wikipedia.
I'd recommend Dominic Streatfeild's Brainwash: The Secret History of Mind Control instead. ...more

We're continuing our foray into bad kindle unlimited books.
Dark Psychology 101 is one such book. My suspicions were confirmed. This is a pretty standard kindle unlimited book on a topic, I would say.
It announces itself as something of interest to afflicted people or those looking to dabble in malevolence. What it delivers is a number of pages of "business book density" content at a very far from educated readership resolution. I don't think it would be terribly misleading to say that it's a b ...more

Altho' this stuff is basically accurate and true, it is done in a very poor manner. It isn't 101 because that implies it is college level, but really it is grade school level. It does NOT have any case histories, it has crappy examples. It is dull and mushy in expression, it is NOT sharp and cutting. Worst of all, it is a 50 page book puffed up to 200 pages by using cheap and shitty techniques of large text, a space between each line and two lines between paragraphs. This guy is just an opportun

Best book

Very specific, excellent examples
I really enjoyed this book and found it very educational. I would have given it five stars because the information was spot on, but I didn't like how the writer sounded biased about god and religion, it almost seemed like he was insinuating all believers are disillusioned and I think writers should stay clear from personal preferences with facts. Good book worth the buy ...more

This was a good introduction to those who want to learn about the darker aspects of psychology. It was written in terms that are very easy to understand and is straight to the point.
I recommend this book to those interested in learning about this type of psychology. I think it is a good starting point.

I will update this later.

Don't judge a book by its cover, nor by its rating.

“An influencer has the mindset of “I would like to help you make decisions that are good for you.” A manipulator has the mentality of “I want to secretly control you to benefit myself.”

“The next step after love bombing is often positive reinforcement. This is a switch of behavior in which the manipulator no longer displays relentless, unconditional positivity toward their victim. Instead, the manipulator withholds any positivity whatsoever until a time when the victim is performing a desired behavior. So, for example, if the manipulator wants their victim to call them frequently, the manipulator will only show a positive response when this happens. The victim will be unaware that positive attention is being used strategically against them, but will subconsciously comply with the wishes of the manipulator to experience the good feelings on offer.”
