dancing.... is more than an entertaining book. It's scope and insight that your behavior style +behavior orientaton and how they reveal your personal social style is very insightful. One of the few books that I would not only recommend to my friends but one of the few I find worth buying and giving as a help.

I read this book in college for a psychology class and I have since given my book away several times. It is a must read, as it provides insight to one's self and others; yet is not inclusive to anyone person. For myself personally, I learnt a great deal about my personality that I knew but never had brought to my attention. Also that kind of person that I am attracted too, how my personality directs my work habits and my fun moments. A great book for couples to read through together...I'm going to send a copy to my boyfriend. :)

excellent practical model for understanding one's self and others and how to work =and communicate. simpler than myers-briggs.

This is an amazing book. It is the simplest and quickest social styles/personality system I have run across. And, yet, it is very thorough. My former boss (the author's son-in-law) introduced it to me during our interview. He has been a good model of the goal this book sets forth. I have learned and am still learning a lot from the book and reference it often. I highly recommend it to all. The newer version is entitled How to Deal with Annoying People and is co-authored by Kimberly Alyn. I have to keep an inventory to keep up with those around me who are interested!

Can you guess my social style?
