- Summary:
- Whether they involve sexual partners in the bedroom, customers and sales clerks in stores, or work colleagues in committee meetings, interpersonal relations between real people are the essential heart of society. But it is a 'heart' that has, for too long, been overlooked in social and psychological analysis.
- This book aims to recover the lost heart by exploring a wide range of examples of interpersonal control:
- B7 Intimate relations of love B7 Romance B7 Family ties B7 Sexuality B7 Emotional blackmail B7 Violence
