About the Author:

Born in Texas, Harris took his science degree in 1938 from the University of Arkansas Medical School. In 1942 he began his psychiatry training in Washington DC at St. Elizabeth Hospital. He was a Navy psychiatrist for several years, becoming chief of the Psychiatry Branch and leaving the service as a commander. This was followed by a teaching post back at the University of Arkansas, and then a period as a senior mental health bureaucrat. He continues to practice psychiatry in Sacramento, California, and is a director of the Transactional Analysis Association.

Review:

"We need this wonderful book so badly! It is even clearer and more helpful than its predecessor" -- Harold Kushner "Their book has a rare commonsense and realism; its examples and anecdotes and snatches of talk and dialogue, whether real or imagined, are representative and convincing...it it doesn't work it ought to" * Observer *
