The Art of Speedreading People, Barbara Barron-Tieger and Paul D. Tieger.
Part of a series by the authors that explores the implications of temperament in our
daily lives. Using the Myers-Briggs Temperament Indicator ™, these books also give concrete ways we can use the knowledge of temperament to better communicate with, and relate to, others of differing types.
Although
the theory behind their typing system and Keirsey's
similar one (see below) differs from that of archetypal psychology (which uses the gods and goddesses as archetypes
related to personality types), both systems involve using personality typing and temperament to
evaluate and explain individual differences. |
 |
Please Understand Me, by David Keirsey and Marilyn Bates. This "classic" book
clearly explains both the theory and implications of personality type and temperament.
Provides illustrations of how temperament produces individual difference, and how understanding and valuing
the differences in the personality type of yourself and others can
result in improved self-esteem and personal relationships. |
