Synopsis

People's behavior often seems randomly varied but according to Carl G. Jung, behavior actually follows patterns. Jung called these patterns, psychological types, and he wrote extensively about these types. Isabel Briggs Myers brought Jung s concepts into the mainstream through development of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator instrument which helps a person figure out his or her psychological type. People Types & Tiger Stripes has rightfully earned its best-selling status as being an outstanding book about type and how it works in everyday life, especially in the world of teaching. The newly released and redesigned fourth edition marks the 30th anniversary of this pioneering work. This book includes two essays by Isabel Myers and provides a detailed explanation of the theory and practice of using type in the education process. Filled with understandable charts, practical exercises, and helpful explanations, People Types & Tiger Stripes is a wonderful resource for anyone who is interested in the learning process and designing curricula that capitalizes on knowledge of type preferences, for both students and teachers.
