Machiavellian Advance Detection and Resistance is a set of skills for outwitting master manipulators, especially during the holidays.
If you remain alert for manipulative behavior this holiday season, according to published reports, you’ll probably spot some or all of the following during get-togethers. Here are six common tactics:
Former First Lady Rosalynn Carter died. She was the closest adviser to President Jimmy Carter during their 77-year marriage,
