A fun book on various different personality-defining systems, summarized in a few pages with fun pictures. This is a book I would have really enjoyed in my teen years, a time when my friends and I were doing every quiz we could get our hands on both for entertainment and our continuing quest to learn about ourselves. As an adult, and a graduate of psychology, I prefer more scientific tests (psychometrics) or at least something with a little more depth. At the very least, I had fun with it in the beginning but eventually had to give in to precious real estate space in my library and donate the book. Hopefully, someone else is really enjoying it. This book seemed like a good idea - it's filled with surveys and tests and assessments to take, as a way of finding out more about yourself. The only problem is, with 101 of them, each individual assessment, and its explanation, only scratches the surface of the topic, which in many cases is some school of thought hundreds of years old, which can take years for any one person to understand. So, I find the content to be ridiculously lacking in true substance. Yeah, I can easily assess my body type, but trying to fit palmistry, or the five elements of Chinese medicine, into a two-page chapter utterly fails. So, in the end, I found this book to be almost entirely a waste of time (the time that I spent with it, anyway; I didn't make it through all of the exercises. I quit about half-way through). It had some entertainment value, though, when I worked through some of them with a couple of other people. That was interesting, although we all agreed after a few of the assessments that it wasn't enlightening enough to continue. I enjoyed looking through this book and exploring all the different ways that we may perceive and classify ourselves. these include facial and hand types, the medieval humors, archetypal analysis, spatial abilities, the Enneagram, and chakras. A hodgepodge perhaps, but if you pick and choose you'll find something interesting and revealing. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
