The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is the most widely used personality inventory in the world, and understanding characteristics unique to each personality type, provides insight on how they influence an individuals way of communicating and interacting with others.

This textbook takes the most useful ideas from MBTI literature, integrates and critiques them, evaluates the evidence for and against them, compares them with mainstream psychology, and where applicable draws out their implications for practitioners. This text will be especially of interest to students of occupational psychology and management at undergraduate, Masters and MBA level, as well as of direct relevance to practitioners, consultants, mangers and HR professionals.
