Stephen Meredith Potter (1 February 1900 – 2 December 1969) was a British writer best known for his parodies of self-help books, and their film and television derivatives. After leaving school in the last months of the First World War he was commissioned as a junior officer in the British Army, but by the time he had completed his training the war was over and he was demobilised.

rdfs:comment	Stephen Meredith Potter, född 1 februari 1900, död 2 december 1969, var en brittisk författare som är mest känd för sina parodiska "självhjälpsböcker". Boken beskriver till exempel hur man, genom att använda sig av olika sorters "plojer", kan skaffa sig ett övertag över andra människor och få dem att känna sig irriterade.
