World-famous psychologist Eric Berne is the creator of transactional analysis and the famous system of psychological assistance based on it, which allows people to independently solve problems that arise in relationships with others. This book, which has successfully gone through many reprints and has been published in millions of copies in many languages, is dedicated to teaching the reader how to professionally analyze the nuances of their communication, as well as helping to get rid of many behavioral stereotypes and complexes that interfere with everyday life. Initially, this work was conceived as an advanced textbook on psychoanalysis, but in the end the author was able to present it in a simple and accessible language using vivid and witty images. "People Who Play Games", which became an international bestseller many years ago, still remains one of the most popular books on psychology around the world.
