Synopsis

Passive-aggressiveness is often poorly understood. This book, written for a general readership, provides a developmental approach, tracing the origins in childhood, the evolution through teen years and the many ways it affects the life of the adult passive-aggressive person and those who are a part of his life. Interpersonal relationships become frustrating and the passive-aggressive person usually becomes chronically unhappy. In addition to showing the behaviors that make up passive-aggressiveness, this book shows how they develop from the struggles between parent and child. Guidelines are provided that would be helpful for passive-aggressive people, as well as for those who interact with them.
