About this product

Product Information

In this absorbing and equally inspiring companion volume to his classic trilogy--The Road Less Traveled, Further Along the Road Less Traveled, and The Road Less Traveled and Beyond--Dr. M. Scott Peck brilliantly probes into the essence of human evil.People who are evil attack others instead of facing their own failures. Peck demonstrates the havoc these people of the lie work in the lives of those around them. He presents, from vivid incidents encountered in his psychiatric practice, examples of evil in everyday life. This book is by turns disturbing, fascinating, and altogether impossible to put down as it offers a strikingly original approach to the age-old problem of human evil.

    A look into the complex notions of human depravity

    Very enlightening content I chose to give this book a high rating because I agree with the spiritual side of the authors ideas, to a point. He could have left out the chapters on exorcism and it would be in my top 10 of all time. Not because of the conclusions he offers concerning the exorcisms, but because of his ideas about who should be present in future exorcisms. 🤔🤔

    People of the Lie

    A very readable book. The author cuts through textbook psychological disorders and gets to the underlying root of the most painful human conditions. Peck is an MD who gives power to his assessment of human evil. Don't let the aspect of religion deter you from reading this book. It is medically based. If the Christianity piece of it bothers you, skip the 1st chapter and perhaps the ending chapters on exhorcism. What's in between is solid psychiatric writing that addresses mental health issues from a new point of view. This reader found the arguement compelling, the reading fluid and the case studies interesting. Not a heavy read, but a meaty concept.

    People of the Lie

    This is an interesting book explaining a perspective on what is wrong about certain aspects of human society and the inability or refusal of some people to take accountability for their actions. The author at times comes across as a holier than thou "Psychiatrist" expert, but he highlights his experience with individuals who are intent on hiding their actions and blaming the world for their problems. As a therapist who has worked with such individuals I believe Dr. Peck has some correct ideas about what is wrong with aspects of society that perpetuate the escaping of individual responsibility and personal accountability. This book is an interesting read.

    A very important book on the nature of Evil and how to deal with it.

    This book by M. Scott Peck is just as insightful as his classic, "The Road Less Traveled". A must for theologians and those who work with prisoners, abusers, thieves, and other miscreants.

    Great Find

    Dr. Peck's perception of evil is thought provocing. His theories are interesting and the patients he profiles hold your interest . If you are the least bit interested in psychology, psychiatric practice or mental illness versus possession, this book will hold your interest.
