One of the most popular authors of psychological literature is Dale Carnegie. He is considered the founder of the theory of conflict-free communication. True, in our country his books, despite their immense popularity, are often criticized. Many psychologists believe that Carnegie's advice is much more applicable to Western than to Russian society.
Eric Berne's books "Games People Play" and "People Who Play Games", in which the author explores the psychology of human relationships, have also gained wide recognition.
