THE "NICE" MOTHER/WIFE....She works herself to the bone, never asking anything in return. And she uses guilt, illness, and "niceness" to manipulate those around her.

THE "NICE" FATHER/HUSBAND....He's a soft touch, even-tempered, and never yells. But what he's really saying is, "You don't exist--I can't be bothered."

THE "NICE" LOVER.... He builds up her ego, "loves" her cooking, and is supergentle in bed. His "niceness" protects him from real involvement--and it's driving her crazy.

THE "NICE" BOSS....He's a pal to his subordinates, and he'll work late rather than demand overtime from them. He's so "nice" that he can't control his employees-or his home life.

Are you letting these "nice guys" ruin your life? Or are you just being "nice" and ruining your own? Now Dr. George R. Bach, author of the best sellers THE INTIMATE ENEMY and PAIRING, presents sound, provocative, workable ways to stop the tyranny of unreal "nice" behavior-in yourself and others-by expressing your natural anger constructively. Now you can find an exhilarating new emotional freedom in your everyday life-through CREATIVE AGGRESSION!
