Many of them may well be described with the term Machiavellian. Such individuals disrespect moral principles, deceive their fellow beings, and take advantage of others' frailty and gullibility. They have a penetrating, rational and sober mind undisturbed by emotions. At times we cannot help but be enchanted by their talent even though we know they misuse it.Recent studies have revealed that Machiavellians possess a complex set of abilities and motivations. This insightful book examines the complexities of the Machiavellian trait, in relation to attitude, behaviour, and personality. By integrating results and experiences from social, personality, cognitive, and evolutionary psychology, Tamás Bereczkei explores the characteristics of Machiavellianism (such as social intelligence, deception, manipulation, and lack of empathy), and the causes and motives guiding Machiavellian behaviour. The author also demonstrates how Machiavellianism is related to strategic thinking and flexible long-term decisions rather than to a short-term perspective, as previously thought, and explores Machiavellianism in relation to the construct of the Dark Triad. The first comprehensive psychological book on Machiavellianism since Christie and Geis' pioneering work in 1970, Machiavellianism summarizes the most important research findings over the last few decades. This book is fascinating reading for students and researchers of psychology and related courses, as well as professionals dealing with Machiavellians in their work and practice. 000808377 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000808377 650_0 $$aMachiavellianism (Psychology) 000808377 655_0 $$aElectronic books 000808377 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBereczkei, Tamás, author.$$tMachiavellianism$$b1 Edition.$$dNew York : Routledge, 2018$$z9781138093287$$w(DLC) 2017054156$$iPrint version:$$z1138093319$$z9781138093317 000808377 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000808377 8520_ $$bcoll 000808377 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=5178436$$zOnline Access 000808377 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:808377$$pGLOBAL_SET 000808377 980__ $$aEBOOK 000808377 980__ $$aBIB 000808377 982__ $$aEbook$$aEbook 000808377 983__ $$aOnline
