About this listen
We seem to wake up to a new tragedy in the news every day - Newtown, Boston, Aurora, Columbine. So often the reporters say that "there were some signs, but nobody acted". The scary part about these tragedies is that less than one percent of criminals are incarcerated for their crimes, meaning that for every headline, there are millions of dangerous situations in which average people find themselves. On top of that, how can ordinary people identify threats from those who may not hurt them physically, but can devastate their lives on a daily basis - the crazy coworkers, out-of control family members, or relentless neighbors? In Dangerous Personalities, former FBI profiler Joe Navarro shows listeners how to identify the four most common "dangerous personalities", and analyze how much of a threat each one can be: the Narcissist, the Predator, the Paranoid, and the Unstable Personality. Along the way, listeners learn how to protect themselves both immediately and long-term - as well as how to recover from the trauma of being close to such a destructive force.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Why do you have trouble controlling certain behaviors? Why do you behave differently as an adult than you did as an adolescent?Since the start of recorded history, and probably even before, people have been interested in answering questions about why we behave the way we do.

Getting someone to tell the truth is an essential skill that very few people possess. In the boardroom, the classroom, or our own homes, every day we interact with others and try to get the truth from them. People are often untruthful out of fear of negative consequences associated with divulging information. But if a person is made to forget the long-term outcomes, he or she can be influenced to disclose sensitive information that's being withheld.

A very interesting read
Concise, to the point and in plain language, the book is a very interesting look at the behaviors and attitudes that may indicate a malevolent individual. The check lists are easy to understand and apply to every day life.
If you feel uneasy or threatened, this book can be an excellent resource to validate your observations and provide the impetus for action.
A quick listen, I was able to finish the book in a single sitting. For the time investment, it was surprisingly thought provoking and I would strongly recommend to anyone in distress or with even a slight interest in self defense or psychology.

VERY GOOD READ
I was very impressed and the book was very informative... having to get back into the dating scene, it's great that the book really helps us be vigilant and pay attention to signs that we all too often ignore. I appreciate that the author made sure to use the gender labels interchangeably.
