Description
First in the PsychSmart series: concise, practical books designed to help you deal with the difficult personalties you encounter among family, friends, and work associates. "Getting Along with a Control Freak" provides insight as well as lots of smart moves for getting along with that "controller" ruining your life.
Personality style trumps most other aspects of human relationships. If you can understand the personality style of the controllier in your life, and are supplied with some Smart Moves, you'll know just how to respond the next time s/he tries to take over.
Dr. John Berecz taught Theories of Personality at the university level for nearly forty years and has maintained a psychotherapy practice working with individuals and couples. He's seen it all, and this book distills the lessons he has learned into easy-to-understand, practical suggestions. Filled with entertaining and enlightening case studies, this book will help you understand and get along with the controlling people in your life--at home, at work, or in social situations.
Dr. Berecz recently published a college level personality textbook (Theories of Personality: A Zonal Perspective, Pearson, 2009) but you don't need to read an entire textbook in order to learn how to get along better with that troublesome person who is trying to dominate your life.
This mini-book can be purchased for less money that you will probably pay for your cheeseburger combo, but it's worth so much more. No calories! No cholesterol! Just sound advice and smart moves for dealing with those difficult people who want to run your life.
