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 1% 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
readers 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.
