Change Your Self, Change the World!

One day while walking in the forest a young man found an unusual stick. It was an unusual bluey-green in colour. He liked it a lot and decided to keep it. The stick lay on his bedroom table for quite a while.

Once he picked it up and started drumming with it. “It would have been good to have two,” he thought, “because then he would really be able to play the drums.” A little while later while he was eating Egg fu yung, (his favourite Chinese dish) he wished he had two sticks so that he could use them as chop sticks.

 
Games People Play - Eric Berne

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.
