Summary: Thank you
Comment: The author described my invalidator sibling perfectly - a control freak who cannot stand to be wrong. A real pain in my butt all my life - one who left me feeling less than adequate, who ruined my self confidence, and basically screwed my life up no end (and I am a member of Mensa). Thank you for clearing up what these people are all about - I feel much better now.

Summary: What an eye opener!
Comment: First and foremost, thank you Mr. Carter!! This is a book that that has the ability to completely refocus the "victim". Those who have fallen "victim" to the "nasty people" of the world will be able to clearly describe their characteristics and behaviors after reading this book. Think about the "nasty people" in your life. They are the ones who feel better about themselves by putting others down and those who will criticize, even traumatize by giving and withdrawing attention, affection or their physical presence at whim. Carter provides a very simple, yet complete picture of how to identify the "nasty people" in your life, what the effects of "nasty people" can be and how to change your response to them. His straightforward writing style allows even those who are deepest in denial that they could let others effect them in such "nasty" ways will have to step back and realize the err of their ways. Essentially, Carter's overall message is that "nasty people" have issues themselves, and while we may not be able to change them, we are able to change the way we respond to them. This alone will serve to remove the primary benefit that "nasty people" strive for, and that one thing is power. While Carter's writing is not oozing with major theoretical overtones, it does allow the reader to put things in perspective and close this book feeling a lot more empowered as well as self-appreciating.

Summary: good, but...
Comment: I liked this book because I could finish it in less than a day. There were good points that I now hope to use. I was slightly disappointed because the reader is left to come up with their own way of dealing with nasty people. I felt that I needed more examples than the ones given. I will say that reading this book wasn't a waste of time.
