Gifts differing (by Isabel Briggs Myers)
'Gifts differing' is rather deeper than most books on the Myers-Briggs personality theory. This is partly because the author, Isabel Briggs Myers, was one of the people who developed Jung's theories into something that could be used and understood by ordinary people. The subtitle is 'Understanding personality type', and the book is considered a classic by those interested in the Myers-Briggs theories.
This book looks at how and why we develop into the people we are, assuming no prior knowledge. It has insights into characteristics inherent in our personality preferences, as well as observed generalities.
It's ot really a book to read straight through, as it's a bit heavy on detail. But I thought it very useful as a reference guide.
