Narcissism is a trait that is displayed in everyone; it is an essential part of your make-up. It is best summarized as the placing of oneself above all other parties; you should place your interests first. At times this is a desirable and essential trait; if you never think of your own needs how will you ever achieve your own goals? Of course, this is not practical, reasonable or even possible all the time. A ‘normal’ personality will balance these selfish needs against the needs of others, using empathy and a moral conscience to guide each decision. Thus is the crucial difference. This book has been written to increase your understanding of narcissism and at what point someone who has strong narcissistic traits can be said to change from being a ‘normal’ personality to someone with narcissistic personality disorder. Narcissistic personality disorder is one of the ten main personality disorders and can affect anyone; it will always start in childhood and there are theories regarding childhood experiences increasing the likelihood of the disorder becoming prevalent in adult life. This book looks to explain what narcissistic personality disorder is, the symptoms most people display and how it is diagnosed. It also looks at egoism and selfishness, how these traits relate to someone with this disorder and explains what they differences in between these often confused concepts. Personality disorders are often included as mental health disorders although there are conflicting opinions as to whether this is the right place for them to be classified. The book looks at what conditions are counted as mental health disorders and how to recognize them. Finally the book looks at the treatments available for those with narcissistic personality disorder and the difficulties in getting this disorder diagnosed; particularly as those who suffer from this disorder do not usually know they have an issue. To conclude the book looks at the best way to spot a narcissist, or someone with this disorder and the best way of dealing with them on a daily basis. The effect on your life of living with a sufferer can be complicated and very difficult; it is important to be aware of the options; what action to take and when to know you have done all you can; this book will guide you through all these steps. Living with NPD is not easy, but with the right support it is possible to manage the disorder and live a normal life.

I was pleasantly surprised when I found this book and was quite amazed at the content. I can more than relate to the contents because the personality disorder behavior described I came across several years ago in my sister’s husband. We were flabbergasted at his behavior, outbursts and often nonchalant demeanor but now we have a name for it and help to deal with it.

I felt so sorry for my sister when she would vent, I didn’t know how to console or help her but now I do. I will definitely get a copy for her as well. This book is a breath of fresh air because it helps me understand the intricacies of the disorder, how it affects the person who displays it and how to help those who have to deal with the narcissist.

It’s a very worthwhile read for the people who have to deal with it up close and personal. Kudos for writing this book, it’s practical and beneficial.

4.0 out of 5 stars is the best context which I've read

Ever since it is in my habit to observe people especially when I am in a large crowd or meeting new acquaintances. I do this in order for me to check on would I deal with them. One of the traits I am curious about people are being vain, and ever since I have reading scripts about it. This book, by far, is the best context which I've read. It showcases full details on what are the things you should know about a person who is a narcissist. I must say that this one is worth the read and I would recommend this to people who are also interested in this kind of subject.

Damn.. A person, very close to me, once had a boyfriend who turned out to be a psychopath. And now I know more specific that he suffered from NPD. Pretty much everything I read in this book, fitted into his personality. He was very charming and friendly when you talked to him in person, but behind your back he talk s*** about and absolutely hated you. At one point I actually though we had a good connection, but no.

No matter what she did, he wouldn’t acknowledge that he had a problem. Luckily she is not with him anymore, she was damaged but got out of the relationship as a stronger person.

Great book, I feel like I could spot anyone with NPD with a little time now. I even though that I had NPD at one point haha. But as the book said, it’s completely normal to be a little narcissistic at times or for short periods.

ZERO , OOOOO This is not a book for starters...it is a 46 page ...nothing! The spelling and grammar are beneath high school level..... if that!
Spelling horrific, grammar of 6 year old , the "information" reads like a junior high or freshman high school essay assignment that had been researched briefly on YouTube. What a waste . I am sending it back.

This was a very informative book. I got it because of a current living situation and the other person and I are also intimate. It has become clear that they are very into themselves so on a whim I got this book. The unnerving part was how much of the book I too identified with so I had to take a look at myself as well. Chapter 7 covers how to deal with it pretty well, living with a narcissist that is. So looks like I need to do some soul searching also.

I couldn't have asked for a better tutorial on what exactly im dealing with on a regular basis w someone so dear to me. I have asked myself all the what is n what there is I could ask and always coming up with headaches n tears. I appreciate the way this book is eritten and how it's built. It is simply put in a straight forward manner that you can't help but understand it. Its educational n also gives some me hope on recovery for myself n also for my other half - even if we don't make it. Thanks so much.

Reading this book helps me understand and identify people suffering with NPD to those who are just proud of themselves. It helps me differentiate the traits and behavior of a person with narcissism. Now i understand why there are people who has too much ego and selfishness. I used to treat this kind of people differently because i started to build hate over them not knowing that they could be suffering from a personality disorder. Getting a lot of information about narcissism from this book somehow has changed my views and opinion towards people with excessive personality traits. It takes patience for someone to fully understand what NPD is and how to deal with them.

After reading this book I now have a better understanding of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Based on the symptoms discussed in this book and the advice on identifying someone with this disorder I am able to tell who is suffering from this disorder. I like that the various treatments available for this disorder is also discussed in this book. I am glad I got this book as it has been helpful; 4 star.

Repetitive; not well written; and exceedingly amateur. The writer makes generalizations about leaders and the famous suggesting they all have narcissistic tendencies. It reads like a post-relationship written therapy. Perhaps they were famous or a politician. 😀

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 14, 2016

It is misleading to say this is a 'book'. It's more of a pamphlet and starts with reference to a Wikipedia definition of narcissism. Shockingly overpriced for what it is, an undergraduate essay at best in quality.
