Professor Tim Carey, Director of the Centre for Remote Health in Alice Springs, is co-author of a newly published book, Controlling People: the paradoxical nature of being human.

Written with US research psychologist Robert Marken, the book explores ways to address the self-defeating behaviour of attempting to control others.

The book has created significant interest in the blogosphere and on social media. For further details of the book, published by the Australian Academic Press, go here.
