A good introduction October 1, 2008 TA Today is a current textbook for Trainee Transactional Analysts. The book provides a well structured introduction to TA, that is easily read, and covers all the main areas of TA theory. A great feature of this book is the examples and exercises included. I look forward to the next revision.

Standard TA Textbook January 31, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
TA Today is the current standard textbook for Trainee Transactional Analysts, and as such is well structured, easily written, and covers all areas of TA theory up to 1987. It is in need of revising to take account of new theoretical developments, hence 4 stars. But it is still the best overall starting point for understanding the powerful techniques and ideas of Transactional Analysis.
Fantastic contribution to this field November 1, 2006 17 out of 19 found this review helpful
I've read other books on this subject and have found them to be a bit heavy. This books manages to get the balance between doing justice to the topic and being readable. A lot of great examples are used. Buy it, just don't forget to read it. This book will never leave my library.
Horrible,horrible nonsense March 2, 2006 22 out of 104 found this review helpful
Please wake up, all of you! This book manages to be toxic and incoherent at the same time. I feel queasy at the thought that an army of therapists, equipped with the crass oversimplifications and crude categorisations that fill these pages, will descend on troubled and vulnerable people promising to fix their problems. Berne seems to be a focus for all sorts of charlatans and hucksters. Scientology looks respectable by comparison.
