I'm OK, you're OK
Book • 1969
In this book, Dr. Thomas A. Harris simplifies the concepts of Transactional Analysis, originally developed by Dr. Eric Berne.
The book focuses on the three ego-states (Parent, Adult, and Child) that influence interpersonal communication.
Harris explains how most people adopt a 'Not OK' position from childhood, leading to negative life positions such as 'I’m Not OK – You’re OK.' The book provides a framework to understand and change these positions, enabling readers to achieve more effective and joyful interactions with others.
It has been highly influential and has sold over 15 million copies since its publication in 1969.
