On Gaslighting by Kate Abramson
Gaslighting' is suddenly in everyone's vocabulary. It's written about, talked about, tweeted about, even sung about (in 'Gaslighting' by The Chicks). It's become shorthand for being manipulated by someone who insists that up is down, hot is cold, dark is light - someone who isn't just lying about such things, but trying to drive you crazy.-

"Abramson’s close examination of [the gaslighting] phenomenon is. . helpful and enlightening."---Dodai Stewart, New York Times Book Review
"Rigorous and passionately argued."---Leslie Jamison, New Yorker
"An edifying exploration of the ubiquitous yet often misunderstood term. . . . [Abramson] makes salient points about the ways gaslighting traffics on trust, and ends on an uplifting note, encouraging readers to ‘be articulate and specific’ when describing experiences for which they might otherwise be gaslit. Patient readers will be rewarded." * Publishers Weekly *
"[Abramson’s] approach to this hot-button issue is thoughtful. . . . Fuel for debate about the semantic and emotional injuries inherent in personal relationships and social marginalization." * Kirkus Reviews *
"A fascinating, esoteric treatise on gaslighting, which includes not only what this psychological tactic involves, but what it doesn’t, on both the micro and macro levels."---Karen R. Koenig, New York Journal of Books
