Dark psychology deals specifically with things like influence, manipulation, and persuasion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s so named because it represents the shadow-like<\/a> side of the human mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Robert Greene\u2019s book focuses on seduction as a form of social power. It identifies nine types of seducer and explains how they win power. The book also features an anti-seducer profile and 18 types of victim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its purpose is to label and describe different types of seducer so the reader is armed against their tactics. The book features historic figures as examples of each seducer and explains how they became powerful. Importantly, this isn\u2019t a book for learning seduction<\/a> tactics, as it doesn\u2019t read like an instruction manual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the book is written in a clear and informative style, its examples are somewhat disconnected. For example, learning how Madame de Pompadour seduced people isn\u2019t exactly helpful for understanding modern seduction techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
