Evil is what Evil does.

This book is super acurate. I saw the evil of myself in these pages. I thought I was a good person, but I see the evil things I do on a regular basis. This book has brought recognition and healing to my life. When you name your issue, you can heal your issue. I am a recovering evil person.

Appreciating Spirituality from a Clinical Perspective

Peck sets out to do what could be considered to be the impossible--reconcile the ancient and persistent concept of an active evil in the world with a "cause and effect" worldview. He does so with sensitivity, respect and a willingness to look beyond the conventional wisdom. Without pandering to bogeymen, he nevertheless recognizes the limitations of current pscyhiatric understanding to explain and understand certain known behavior. By immersing himself into primary sources--the situations themselves--he has opened himself to a fuller understanding of the human character.

Interesting synopsis

Dr Peck does a good job of explaining what evil is in our world today and what we can do to help those who are afflicted, but only if they want help.

People of the Lie review

I have not read the entire book, but have read several pages throughout the book. It is not exactly what I was told by a friend that it would be, however, it is a very interesting, educational book.
