Editorial Review:
Recommended by two highly credible authorities, consciousness explorer Ken Wilber and spiritual-growth guru Harville Hendrix, this compendium of Enneagram information was assembled by the cofounders of the Enneagram Institute as an introduction to the subject. Designed with a plenitude of charts, boxes, and quotes (by noted illuminaries such as A.H. Almaas, Maya Angelou, and G.I. Gurjieff), this exceptionally easy-to-use, manual-size paperback teaches the reader how to figure out which of the nine types she is, identifies red flags to self-illusion, and provides practical suggestions for spiritual growth. Advice on how to observe your type's fixations and let go of the need to act out automatic and dysfunctional behavioral responses are down-to-earth and attainable. A distinctly accessible approach to cultivating daily happiness through understanding the complexity of fixations that weave together human personality types. --Randall Cohan

Rating: - This Is "The Source" on the subject...
This is "The Source" of information on the Enneagram.It is also used by Fr. Wm. Meninger in his exploration of the subject. The ancient adage "Know Thyself" is exemplified in this Masterpiece.
While contemplation is extremely important for interior developement,getting to know yourself and the reason for your actions is its external complement. You'll discover through "The Wisdom of the Enneagram" the path to self-knowledge.Self-awareness will lead the true seeker to self-correction and less ... Read More
Rating: - A user's guide to human behavior
This is the best book that I have ever read on personality types.
It even eclipses Myers-briggs in that it outlines WHY we are the people that we have become. Though there is a lot of information, the author leads the reader in small enough steps to not only grasp the material, but to comprehend the potential of our own growth and the way foward in our lives. Un missible for those that work in larger groups or want to understand their families and loved ones better.
Rating: - A Positive Book
This is one of the most positive books on the enneagram by these authors. It's easy to read yet insightful. Best of all, the positive traits of each personality type are highlighted.
Rating: - The Wisdom of the Enneagram
I am taking an Enneagram class and this is the recommended book. I have read many other Enneagram books; this book's strength is in providing ways and tools that each personality type can become more aware of their Essence, of who they truly are! Not the best book for understanding what each level of development looks like for each personality type (get the Enneagram Personality Types book by the same authors if that is what you are interested in) but I would highly recommend this book if you want ...
