What really happens in a relationship? Why do they affect us so strongly? Why do we strive for a sense of belonging to a community, but so aggressively assert our individualism? What are the risks and benefits of a real human encounter? Drawing on insights from psychology, philosophy, management, and economics, The Encounter Mystery explores these questions from a unique perspective and offers insights and guidance for developing healthy relationships. Steve Brio develops effective ways to work with the dynamics of relationships in personal, social and business contexts. Meeting another person, he says, is a "threshold experience". Each of us is an unfamiliar world, and through encounters we face developmental challenges as well as opportunities for profound personal growth.

This fascinating book provides innovative ideas for managers, professionals, educators, communicators, and anyone who wants to improve everyday relationships.
