    Synopsis

    Professor Keirsey is a long time clinical psychologist of the gestalt-field systems school. After 30 years of treating hundreds of teaching, parenting, marriage, and management problems, Dr. Keirsey now challenges the reader to "Abondon the Pygmalion Project", that endless and fruitless attempt to change the Other into a carbon copy of Oneself.

    UNDERSTANDING YOURSELF & OTHERS YOU LOVE OR HATE & WHYby Epicurean.Art.Lover

    June 28, 2009: This book is totally amazing and quite well written. I have successfully spread the wealth of knowledge produced by this book to all my friends and loved ones. Some may even go as far as to say that I pretty much shoveled it down their throats. Some of my close friends including myself swear by it, ofcourse because we are the NT Rational Types. Some find this book alright but are not truly convinced by it, the SJ Guardian Types. Some are facinated by it but refuse to learn from it, the NF Idealist Types and some SP Artisian Types find the whole getting involved with this personality analysis simply boring and could careless about it.

    Also an interesting thing that I discoverd after my two past failed marriages is that had I known that my marital bliss is confirmed only by my Idealist partner and none of the other three, I would have saved myself from the pain and suffering I experienced being married to the Artisian Types. However, now that I am married to an Idealist, I cannot imagine my life without him and this time HEARTFELT THANKS to this book, I have finally found the Man I deserve with the Marital Bliss & my SOULMATE I always wanted. "Better Late Than Never!" I am an INTJ & my husband INFJ. We are absolutely perfect for each other.

    I Also Recommend: Enneagram in Love and Work, Bringing out the Best in Yourself at Work, Personality Types, Discovering Your Personality Type, Feng Shui Your Life.

    June 18, 2001: Besides the great insight into myself I discovered in this book, this is also the most helpful book for fiction character development I've ever found!
