5.0 out of 5 stars Epic title, Epic content!!, February 18, 2009

By	iCherub "Shoe" (Aus) - See all my reviews

This is my first review, and i feel compelled to write it for this one:

This book is practical, and it works!! Having already known my type, i jumped straight to my preferred functions and it was eye-opening to be able to relate to the exercises, as i could recall many times when i used them myself in my every day life. This gave me the confidence that if i practiced the exercises in other functions, it would indeed develop the function and lead to personal growth. The golden nugget for me was the 'three' modes described which say that it would be difficult to develop the function unless one was in that particular mode. Having tried to develop the functions on my own before, i would try in an 'O' mode while trying to do Se and it just wouldnt work. The only thing this book takes is a willingness to grow, and taking the time to do the exercises... in the right mode!

My wish would be more on 'cooperative relationships' specifically between lead & support process, if there was a book on this i would definitely buy it.

Why this book isnt more popular, i dont know... perhaps the title puts it into a sort of cheesy type book category? For a while i have been looking for books specifically to develop the functions, but only came across this recently after peering into it from a preview.

I thoroughly recommend this book for everyone wanting personal growth, or at the least, coming to a greater understanding of themselves and how they, and those around them, go about daily life.

If you are bored, then this is a good motivation on how to live life happier, better, and smoother. You will learn more about yourself and learn how to treat others better (if you aren't already).

I actually had Prof. Dario Nardi as a professor at UCLA for Fall 06, Humam Complex System 19. It was a great class where we studied humans with different qualities. I highly recommend this book.
