'The best introduction to personality psychology I have ever read'
Robert Hogan, founder and president, Hogan Assessment SystemsWe are
each born with a particular genetic makeup and traits that are
further shaped by our individual environments and life experiences,
creating a personality unique to us. But at no point are we given a
manual for how to use that personality in our relationships or at
work, for how to make sense of the facets that create our sense of
self, or for how to troubleshoot our personality if there are
things we are unhappy with.Personality: A User's Guide is that
missing manual. An authoritative and comprehensive guide to
personality psychology, this book outlines the different building
blocks of our personality, presents the many theories and models
that have been argued over the years, and helps you identify where
you stand on the spectrum of key traits that define us.Using this
knowledge about yourself, the book also suggests ways you can
better empathise with those around you who may have very different
approaches to the world, and how we can all leverage our different
strengths. The authors also consider the constantly developing
nature of the self, and ways we can turn that to our advantage and
make changes for greater success and wellbeing.Finally, the book
looks at some specific questions: Can our pets be said to have
their own personalities? What happens when the 'dark triad' of
negative traits are dominant? And is there a future in store where
we can say that an AI has a genuine personality?
V januári 1965 Gabriel García Márquez cestoval s rodinou na
dovolenku do Acapulca, keď odrazu dostal nápad. Začul vravu
mestečka Macondo. Už vedel, ako napíše svoj nový román. Vrátil sa
domov, zatvoril sa do pracovne, a keď z nej po osemnástich
mesiacoch vyšiel, v ruke držal 1 300 strán rukopisu a bol šťastný.
Román Sto rokov samoty prvý raz vyšiel v roku 1967, Márquez mal
vtedy 39 rokov a svet si navždy zapamätal jeho meno. Dnes je román
považovaný za jedno z najvýznamnejších diel latinskoamerickej a
svetovej literatúry. Je komponovaný z množstva reálnych aj
fantazijných epizód a rozpráva o pôvabných i krutých príhodách
šiestich generácií rodiny Buendíovcov z fiktívneho mestečka
Macondo.
