The Gamester's Handbook 3 features up-to-date activities and new games for skills and issues that are important today. It includes information on specific aims and principles behind the games to tailor them to individual group requirements.

Gamester's Handbook 2 is a collection of 89 tried-and-tested games for developing self-awareness, confidence, decision-making skills, trust, assertiveness and just for fun. These games can help social inadequacy by developing co-operation within groups. Each activity promotes effective communication, particularly important with shy people who need additional encouragement. The 'role playing' aspects of many games provide the security which enables group members to develop their ideas and express themselves.

The games in this book offer a valuable source of activities, exercises and strategies for parents, group leaders, people planning parties, travellers or anyone wishing to enliven any occasion they choose. These games are accessible to all, as they can be used with different levels of skill. The ability of many of our games to help people relax socially on both a one-to-one basis and with a group, encourages the use of games by teachers and group leaders. Accompanying notes are provided, outlining the value of the game in different developmental directions.
