A valid aid to answering, ‘Who Am I?’”

"Other similar books come to mind in reviewing this one: Karen Horney's Neurosis and Human Growth, Carl Jung's Psychological Types, and Christopher Lasch's The Culture of Narcissism are certainly three of the best. But none is so immediately accessible as this book by Oldham and Morris, none so challenging, so immediately helpful to the reader."

"I browsed this book for amusement and stayed to be educated. Addressed in a personal, intimate style to you, the reader, the book proposes to reveal your unique personality portrait and to help you with the personality styles of others. And it delivers very well.... The 14 styles comprise traits that are normal when moderate and played sotto voce but become a disorder if they are too rigid or pervasively applied and so cause difficulty.... The book is crisply written and free of jargon. Its careful illustration of traits as they range from style to disorder brings to life the strengths and pitfalls of each. Interweaving them in the areas of work, relationships, and self-control, the authors provide what amounts to a rich and thoroughgoing course on intrapersonal and interpersonal dynamics. Apparently aimed at a lay audience, in fact the book makes a delightful and instructive read at any level of training.”
