The Narcissist Next Door: Understanding the Monster in Your Family, in Your Office, in Your Bed--in Your World by Jeffrey Kluger

4.0

Very interesting and tackles narcissism not just as a clinical disorder but also in its milder form as a mindset that can reward people professionally (if not in their relationships). The major problem I found in this book was the liberal use of celebrity examples when many of these people likely do not suffer from narcissism (certainly not in the clinical sense). I understand the author was looking for examples of BEHAVIORS, but it's easy to see it as labeling people instead, especially when other examples definitely are meant to illustrate narcissism as a condition. Still, I'd recommend reading this if you are interested in personality disorders and how they play out in modern society.
