There is such a thing as evil?
We live in a time when
people
are "challenged" or "abused" or in need of "sensitivity training". All this psyco-babble is just so much smoke for the real problem,
evil
. Evil has been described (in paraphrase) as the abuse of power imposed to preserve one person's ego at the expense of another. The character disorders described in The Road Less Traveled can continue to mutate into full blown evil. And in our age of vanity evil has never come in more shapes and sizes. Sometimes we all must confront the question of why, why did this or that happen and/or how could someone do such a thing. The most baffling problem for a healthy, well-developed personality to understand is evil itself. Peck the psychiatrist with the penetrating insight of a spiritual pilgram explains this in a way that heals those of us who have experienced the brutalities of evil.

Fair coverage of a very difficult cluster of topics.
Since this book deals with
evil
, some parts are difficult reading. This is a fair, balanced scientific exploration of evil from minor to maximum, i.e. demonic possession. Not based on sensationalism.

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.
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.
