5.0 out of 5 stars Great book about relationships and getting better ones!, November 7, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Sex in Human Loving (Hardcover)

Anyone who is unhappy with the relationships they have, sexual or not, can benefit a LOT from this book. It's funny, witty, and thought provoking. Not just about sex, but about *you*, and why you don't have the relationships you want.

5.0 out of 5 stars Explains what intimacy is about and why we do't get it., May 18, 1999

This review is from: Sex in Human Loving (Hardcover)

This is not about the sexual positions of sex but about intimacy in the context of sex.It tells you why you are after it and how most of the time you have been or got programmed in Life to not get it. One is also better off reading his other books before getting this one i.e. `Games People Play' and `What do you say after you say hello'.

5.0 out of 5 stars a great book but about more than sex, August 28, 2005

This review is from: Sex in Human Loving (Hardcover)

The title is misleading. This book is about much more than just sex. A good explanation of Berne's teaching, easier to follow than the complex `Games People Play.' I wish I had taken the lessons of this book on board when I first read it at 18. The moral of the book: most of us have unhappy scripts handed to us by our parents which make our lives unfulfilled, sometimes tragically unhappy, but those scripts can be rewritten with determination and insight. The humour is a bit too cutesy but the book deserves a 5 for sure.
