Not only does the book deal with what emotional blackmail is, it also tells you the background for it, and what you can do to stop it from happening again, by working on yourself and your own behaviour.”

It discusses a wide spectrum of emotional blackmail, from a harmless form that everyone can relate to (I found myself identifying with such use of manipulation) to extreme forms that are dangerous. The book discusses the theory behind people who use such manipulation and how to cope with such individuals.”
