Clearly written. Accessible. The included test is briefer and clearer than the Meyers-Briggs.

The authors are trainers of therapists and fdiagnosticians of dysfunctional behavior at California State University

This is one of the original books on the Myers-Briggs Type Inventory (MBTI). Easy to read and interesting to find out "what you are" in a kind of personality test that doesn't need a psychologist to figure out.
