I'm a little disappointed by the short descriptions of types. I thought it will be much more detailed than that. However, everything the authors managed to write in just 52 pages was great, including the charts and pictures.

Excellent overview of the Myers-Briggs types, with graphics, tables and short descriptions. Very helpful.
