Product Description
Product Description
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is a development of the work of Carl Jung who suggested the basic personality types of Introversion and Extraversion and the components of intuition, sensation, thinking and feeling. Interest in the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is growing rapidly. It provides absorbing insights and is an invaluable framework for use in counselling, education, careers guidance and management. This book reviews the ideas embodied in the MBTI and their application to understanding oneself and others.

Format:Paperback
This is a great read, giving a thoughtful overview of current thinking on type. It does require some previous knowledge, or should I say familiarity, with Myers-Briggs, to understand it. Bayne gives well-reasoned consideration to the debate on the use of type in different applications, but always with a pro-type flavour.
You might be irritated as I was by his habit of listing what he is going to say, saying it, then summarizing it again. If you are, it's probably an indication of your own type !
The use of tables throughout is well judged to break up the density of the text and I found them very helpful as references.
I tended to read a page or so then break off in an extended thinking/reverie about the issues raised. It's rare to read an academic's text which causes you to do that.
Listmania!
