enlightening...interesting

This excellent book is immensely enlightening. I was very interested to learn how many people's personalities tend toward one of 8 categories: Clinging Vine, Prima Donna, Bully, Con Artist, Wallflower, Hermit, Big Shot, and Perfectionist. However, each represents a jagged, unfinished, hard exterior in which a person is trapped. Dr. Montgomery shows how only God can chisel away the external "junk" and polish the internal essence of each stone into a unique, well-rounded, resplendent work of art. This is a must read for anyone who finds that negative personality traits keeps him/her from experiencing effective, fulfilling relationships with other people.

An absolute must read!

As I read the book, I could not help but find myself agreeing over and over with the truth that is fleshed out. It is an absolute must read for those who want to work with and help people. This has to be one of the top five books that I have read in the last five years
