Transactional Analysis with Gestalt Experiments
Read offline
Recommendation
Did you ever play the games “Kick me,” “Uproar” or “Kiss Off?” Unlike chess and checkers, these pernicious psychological games have nothing do with fun – quite the opposite. Psychological games represent the hidden ploys and rote maneuvers that shape some people’s lives, as well as the harmful ways they interact. In this popular guide to transactional analysis and gestalt therapy, Muriel James and Dorothy Jongeward examine the psychological games some people feel impelled to play, and the often self-destructive life scripts they believe they must follow. The authors explain how people can free themselves from such fallacious thinking through the breakthroughs offered by transactional analysis and gestalt therapy. getAbstract recommends this enriching classic to anyone who wants to understand human behavior.
