Based on Perceptual Control Theory (PCT), this entertaining book explores the paradox
of why we often lose control by trying to be in control and why our controlling nature
makes it difficult to stop this self-defeating behavior. Understanding PCT opens the
window to understanding and learning about ourselves as controlling people and equips
us to lead more effective and satisfying lives
