by Carl Goldberg (Author)
Evil is defined as the destructive, inhuman behaviour of some individuals towards others. It seems increasingly present in our everyday lives. This book explores evil from historical, cultural and religious perspectives, drawing insight from the author's experience of "evil" individuals drawn from his work with seriously disturbed patients. Dr Goldberg identifies the specific psychological conditions that gradually prepare a person for acts of atrocity and analyzes the cruelty and abuse in our society.
