Personality Type: An Owner's Manual

<b>Drawing from Jungian psychology and popular culture this detailed guide to personality types will help you develop a deeper more meaningful sense of your truest self</b> <p/>For Jung knowing your type was essential to understanding yourself: a way to measure personal growth and change. But his ideas have been applied largely in the areas of career and marital counseling so type has come to seem predictive: a way to determine your job skills and social abilities. <p/>This book reclaims type as a way to talk about people's inner potential and the choices they make in order to honor it. Using everyday examples from popular culture--films <i>Star Trek</i> soap operas comic strips--it describes the sixteen basic ways people come to terms with their gifts and values. <p/>In this book you will find tools to understand: <p/>- How your personality takes shape<br>- How your type reflects not only your current priorities but your hidden potential<br>- How unlived possibilities are trying to get your attention<br>- How relationships at home and at work can help you to tap your unrealized gifts
