T A Today: A New Introduction to Transactional Analysis

A great introduction to Transactional Analysis, which is often used as the primary text book for students new to TA.

Covering all the major themes and theories with easy to understand explanations. I particularly love the use of images and diagrams in TA and these are clearly and well represented here.

A must read for anyone wishing to learn more about the application of TA to counselling and psychotherapy.
