Sensational

As sensational as it was when it first appeared, Games People Play is as relevant today as it was when published. With its magical blurb declaring 'We think we're relating to other people-but actually we're all playing games', this is one book that you will find difficult to forget.

What Games Are You Playing?

Wonderful book! Ever wonder why people do the things they do? Why they say certain things and act a certain way? This book will explain exactly what that is all about. A bit technical in the beginning, but than starts you off on your journey of enlightenment. After reading this book you'll start realizing what a jerk you're being to certain people, and what a brown-noser you are to others. In the end, this'll help with your everyday situations with peers and subordinates as you get a clear and thorough understanding on "the games people play".

We think we?re relating to other people?but actually we?re all playing games.

Forty years ago, Games People Play revolutionized our understanding of what really goes on during our most basic social interactions. More than five million copies later, Dr. Eric Berne?s classic is as astonishing?and revealing?as it was on the day it was first published. This anniversary edition features a new introduction by Dr. James R. Allen, president of the International Transactional Analysis Association, and Kurt Vonnegut?s brilliant Life magazine review from 1965.
We play games all the time?sexual games, marital games, power games with our bosses, and competitive games with our friends. Detailing status contests like ?Martini? (I know a better way), to lethal couples combat like ?If It Weren?t For You? and ?Uproar,? to flirtation favorites like ?The Stocking Game? and ?Let?s You and Him Fight,? Dr. Berne exposes the secret ploys and unconscious maneuvers that rule our intimate lives.
Explosive when it first appeared, Games People Play is now widely recognized as the most original and influential popular psychology book of our time. It?s as powerful and eye-opening as ever.
