A great book to introduce yourself to the basics of the Enneagram. Lots of humor and easy to read, but all the major ideas are here.
This is a reference guide to 9 Enneagram personality templates. It is quick paced and straight forward with lists and cartoons. It has enough information to be reflective upon the motives of self and others.
The person who gave me this book to read choose it over other personality factors for two reasons. One unlike the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator it lists negative core emotions. Two, it is an old set of categories passed on though various different cultures. Consequently, it is less co...more

Fun Read! If you want a quick overview of Enneatype but you also want to have some fun with it and laugh out loud, this is the book for you. Elizabeth Wagele includes cartoons throughout the book that marvelously illustrate the mindset of each of the personality types-as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. This book also maps Enneatypes to Myers-Briggs in a helpful visual table.
I find the enneagram such an interesting personality tool. Problem is, it it seems like a lot of the enneagram experts write like experts... and for my mommy brain at the end of the day, it was too much. I have the other books. I'll use the other books. But this is the book I would recommend as a starting spot for anyone interested in the Enneagram. It is a good, fun overview.
Ini buku yang menarik meski banyak tipe yang meleset karena si pembuatnya hanya membuat tipe manusia dari American Culture saja, untuk Asian Culture saya rasa tipe yang tersaji di dalam buku ini tidak sesuai karena saya melihat ada banyak hal yang tidak sesuai dengan tipe-tipe yang tersaji didalamnya.
A fun, easy read of Nine personality types. Enjoyable comics interspersed to show how each the 9 types would respond in a given situation. Addresses how each personality shapes the type of child, parent, work, and relationships we seek and offer.
This is simplified, yet I have found it is useful for introducing the Enneagram to people in a light and humorous way. It does not allow for any great introspective work. The Myers Briggs cross referencing at the end is cool.
As the title says, this really is an easy way to understand the enneagram system. The book is full of short lists and funny little cartoons that make the information very accessible.
I really enjoyed reading this, recommended by my boss, to discover a bit more about me and how I interact. Fascinating. I'm going to keep reading about the Enneagram...
Interesting personality classifications. This book is straightforward and easy to read, and the cartoons throughout are pretty right on.
Asik jadi bisa tau tipe-tipe kepribadian tiap-tiap orang. Bermanfaat buat bersosialisasi dan membangun hubungan yang lebik baik sama orang lain.

A solid introductory book to the enneagram. Lots of fun pictures and basic info. But it leaves you wanting to learn more!
This was an amusing book on each enneagram type with lots of to-the-point lists. Fun, but quite simplistic.
I learnt more about myself and others.
A good book for beginners in the field.
interesting...try to figure out myself
I want to read that..

Recommends it for:
anyone who wants to know why they act the way they do...and have it explained simplistically
I enjoyed the simplistic layout of the book....there's other Enneagram books that are so much larger than this one, so this book isn't daunting....and it's other title could be "Enneagram for dummies."
I'm so grateful for getting my hands on this book because the Enneagram is such a helpful tool to my self-discovery and this book made the material easy to grasp at so that I could pick up other authors on it and know what they're talking about without having a psyc. degree.

If you curious about your type of personality, or perhaps convince that you have more than one. Then you should read this book. It stating about Enneagram theory and help readers to identify their weakness, type and strength. It gives you advise also about the career path that matched for every type. At the end of the book, it gives also an explanation about Jung's theory, and combined both theories quite well. Interesting stuff to read.
kita perlu mengetahui tipe-tipe kepribadian orang lain untuk mempermudah kita menjalin interaksi dengan mereka.
Menurutku Kamu kudu baca! oh iya, buku ini ada 3 yaitu : yang merah, hijau (utk interaksi dengan pasangan, kerenz) dan yang biru (interaksi kepada anak--blm punya, ga ampe nunggu punya anak dong yaa...hrs beli!, dihadiahin jg ga nolak...heheh)

awalnya bertanya-tanya tentang tipe2 kepribadian dari Eneagram, tapi setelah dibaca dan dipraktekan dalam kehidupan, memang bener2 bisa membantu kita untuk lebih mengerti tentang diri sendiri dan bagaimana cara menghadapin orang lain sesuai dengan tipe kepribadiannya...saran yang diberikan pun praktis dan membumi sehingga dapat membantu semua orang dan dapat meminimalkan kesalahpahaman ... =)
Mirip-mirip Personality Plus. Saya sangat menyukai bagian yang menyatakan, "yang tidak mungkin dilakukan oleh tipe ke-4, Tipe Romantis : alih-alih mengecat dinding rumahnya dengan warna ungu, atau biru, ini justru malah memilih warna-warna norak, pink atau kuning ngejrenk. Hehehe...gw banget!
I for get what number.
but I remember I'am an assertif!
9 type of people is so many caracter, may be thats why is hard to remember it.
not like personality plus, just 4 kind and so simple to see in daily activty,
this book I think difficult too use in friendship!

ISFJ : introvert, sensing, feelers, judgers
Tipe 9, si pendamai : dimotivasi oleh kebutuhan untuk menjaga kedamaian, menyatu dengan orang lain, dan menghindari konflik
itulah saya
