The Personality Brokers: The Strange History of Myers-Briggs and the Birth of Personality Testing - Emre, Merve

Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; First conceived in the 1920s by the mother-daughter team of Katherine Briggs and Isabel Briggs Myers, a pair of devoted homemakers, novelists, and amateur psychoanalysts, Myers-Briggs was designed to bring the gospel of Carl Jung to the masses. But it would take on a life entirely its own. Drawing from original reporting and never before published documents, this book takes a critical look at the personality indicator that became a cultural icon and examines the way we attempt to grasp, categorize and quantify our personalities.
