Power Games is a brilliant exploration of the psychodynamic
strategies unconsciously enacted to spare the person the imagined
pain and frustration of an authentic encounter. Although such
strategic power operations can be characterological, they do not
have to be: all people, even those rare individuals who are capable
of ongoing intimacy, are forced at moments of fraility or
interpersonal indecisiveness to play power games, and certainly the
culture at large pervasively sponsors the enactment of
opportunistic interpersonal strategies. In this new book, Gerald
Alper, whose Portrait of the Artist as a Young Patientwas called by
the New England Review of Books "one of the most important modern
studies of the psyche of the creative personality that we have,"
continues his profound examination of the obstacles that stand in
the path of the true intimacy.
