On the one hand it gave me a pretty good introduction to the Ancient Greek system of categorizing personalities by "humors", bodily fluids. On the other hand it is a "Christian Living" book and I'm not a Christian. It's OK for a motivational/self-help book. Great motivational and fun reading about your personalities and those around you...How to deal with different ones. This book is fun to flip through, reading a few pages here and there, but reading the entire thing is to repetitive. I also thought it was a bit to black and white in it's views. There were some tips offered to help you with the more negative aspects of your personality, those were often way to simplistic. At one point I read something a long the lines of "this personality type is prone to depression, if you suffer from this you should try to cheer up and think positive"... Yeah, it's probably that easy... Somewhere around the middle a bunch of quotes from the Bible started poping up as well, which was kind of unexpected and annoying. This book can provide SO much insight into yourself and those around you. It's really fun to read about your personality type and see how close it is to the truth! no reviews | add a review
