 Highly ineffective May 20, 2008

This book is based on the MBTI system and please understand that this system has serious flaws. The only effective system to personality typing is used by Rod Novichkov in his book How to Find Yourself and Your Best Match Socionics. Eventhough the book sounds like a matchmaking book it is infact written with the purpose of explaining the different personality types and goes further to explain morphology and intertype relationships between people. Read Socionics and inspire your professors to look at this type theory before you seek answers from MBTI; you will be impressed.
 I don't remember writing this....but it must have been me. April 26, 2008
I was shocked, amazed and delighted to read my own personality type. It was like I'd written it myself. I wanted to meet and speak with the writer immediately because I'm sure we'd be best of friends. It's a bit scary to find that I can be described in a book. I like to be unique and different. But it also gave me comfort. This is a great tool to help you become more aware of yourself and also discover and effectively deal with others.
The best personality description so far December 22, 2007
I have not read this book at all. I have read some of the "ENTP" description off another website (derived from this book) and I must say, I was truely shocked by the accuracy. I have read other ENTP descriptions online and all them made sense and fit me but made feel lazy because of other ENTP's like Thomas Edison and Benjamin Franklin; I felt like I was being compared to. But this author's description fits me to a TEE. From that passage, I have learned that I don't have be fascinated with physics, mechanical inventions and electricty to be an ENTP. This was extremely enlightning. I will be getting this book for Christmas.
 16 Personality Types November 6, 2007
The item was in good condition and arrived in a timely manner, but I was expecting a book and not a pamplet and thus much more in depth. I don't know if there is a category for such things, but I thought it was misleading (maybe it was noted somewhere on the web page, but if it was I sure didn't see it.)
 16 Personality Types, Descriptions for Self-Discovery July 27, 2007
This book is well organized and concise. I found it interesting, fun, and useful to survey different aspects of the Myers-Briggs categories. There's a lot of information packed into this little book.
