Abstract

In this absorbing equally inspiring companion volume to his classic trilogy The Road Less Further Along the Road Less Traveled, The Road Less Traveled and Beyond Dr. M. Scott Peck brilliantly probes into the essence of human 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, altogether impossible to put down as it offers a strikingly original approach to the age-old problem of human evil.
