Publisher's Synopsis
An ingenious new method for measuring a person's emotional health -- or lack thereof. Features: A sure-fire way for readers to identify and avoid unstable people in their lives. Because unstable people are more likely to lie, cheat, abuse, or take advantage of those around them, it's imperative to protect oneself from them, especially in these chaotic times. Lieberman's tactics -- which work in person, over the phone, or on-line -- will give readers the resources to quickly identify instability in even seemingly normal people, and the tools to differentiate mere eccentricity from real danger; Useful strategies for assessing many different types of situations. Lieberman shows readers how to employ the Stability Quotient to better gauge nannies, co-workers, dates, neighbours, clients, and potential employees, and answer questions like: Can I trust my children with this person? Is this person going to turn violent? Is this person joking or serious about this idea? Is my co-worker troubled or just plain moody? Is my friend capable of hurting him or herself, or others?; Written by a leader in the field of human behaviour. Lieberman's phenomenal previous work has helped thousands of readers understand how people work and how to gain the upper hand in almost any situation. In addition to his book, he frequently appears on television, and has gone head to head on live TV with skilled polygraph examiners and scored just as well every time. Fans of Lieberman's distinctive brand of psychological insight will be eager for his latest work.
