Games People Play (Penguin Life)

We all play games. In every encounter with other people we are doing so. The nature of these games depends both on the situation and on who we meet.

Eric Berne's classic Games People Play is the most accessible and insightful book ever written about the games we play: those patterns of behaviour that reveal hidden feelings and emotions. Wise and witty, it shows the underlying motivations behind our relationships and gives you the keys to unlock the psychology of others - and yourself.

You'll become more honest, more effective and a true team player.

'A brilliant, amusing and clear catalogue of the psychological theatricals that human beings play over and over again.' Kurt Vonnegut
