Very interesting read, esp that excerpts from Shakespeare's plays are used to analyze human behaviors. The book gave an insight to Shakespeare's natural talent in examining human motives and purposes through several different and interesting characters he introduced throughout his writing. This insight is useful and can help anybody in their day to day lives. Each aspect of human behavior and thought is discussed in precise and brief chapters.
