In The Power Tactics of Jesus Christ and Other Essays, pioneering psychotherapist Jay Haley presents a provocative and unconventional examination of power dynamics, drawing on the life and teachings of Jesus as a lens through which to dissect the mechanics of influence, defiance, and social control. With characteristic boldness, Haley argues that Jesus was, above all else, a master strategist in human relationships — a figure whose methods of engaging authority, attracting followers, and confounding opponents offer a startlingly modern blueprint for understanding interpersonal power.\n\nHaley, one of the founding fathers of strategic therapy and a towering figure in 20th-century psychology, brings his razor-sharp analytical mind to subjects that range far beyond theology, weaving together insights from psychiatry, communication theory, and cultural criticism. His prose is concise, irreverent, and intellectually fearless — qualities that made him a singular voice in both clinical and popular psychology. This collection of essays will leave the reader questioning the invisible structures of power that govern every human interaction, and wondering just how much they have been underestimating the radical genius of history's most influential figure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203260162267,"sku":"2026200015654-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/cfed05ed-9dc0-4547-987a-2880359eb0c5.png?v=1788146683","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200015654-secondhand-the-power-tactics-of-jesus-christ-and-other-essays","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
