Harris introduced the field of transactional analysis as a major innovation and alternative to the slow and limited results of practical psychiatry. He combined the neurosurgical results of Penfield with those of Eric Berne. sees great merit in the ability of TA to define basic units through which human behaviour can be analysed the 'strokes' that are given and received in a 'transaction' between two or more people and a standardised language for describing those strokes. This readily understood standardisation, and the association Harris develops between TA and Penfield's neuroscience, gave TA a degree of credibility not possessed by earlier abstract models such as that developed by Freud.
