Summary:

"Since the publication of "Psychological Types" by the Swiss psychiatrist, Carl Gustav Jung, the terms "introvert" and "extravert" which he was the first to apply to types of temperament, have become familiar. Yet Dr. Jung's students are amazed to discover that not only the public but psychologists often make careless use of Jungian terms with only the vaguest idea, or in some cases an erroneous idea, of their fundamental meaning. It is with the hope of correcting current misunderstanding and of making available to the general public the helpful practical knowledge of human nature which Jung's work supplies in abundance, that this book is offered. Dr. Jung has read it in manuscript form and has consented to its publication"-- Book. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2015 APA, all rights reserved).
