Why do you click with some people instantly, and clash with others no matter how hard you try?

It is not bad luck, and it is not your fault. It comes down to how each of us takes in and processes information about the world. Once you can see that, the people around you start to make sense.

Your Social World Explained is a complete, plain-English guide to socionics, the personality system that goes beyond your four-letter type to explain how the 16 personality types relate to each other. If you already know you are an INTJ, an ENFP or an ISFJ and want to know what that means for your friendships, your work and your love life, this is the next step.

In this audiobook you will discover:

• A quick personality type test to find your starting type in four simple questions

• Detailed profiles of all 16 types, grouped into the four quadras, covering strengths, blind spots and what each type needs from others

• The intertype relationships explained, from Duality, your most natural match, to Conflict, Supervision and Mirror relations

• Model A, the map of the psyche that shows where your strengths and sore spots sit

• Small groups and temperaments, for understanding teams and families

• A short history of socionics, and how it brings together Jung's psychological types, Freud's structure of the psyche and Kępiński's information metabolism

Ideal for listeners who know their Myers-Briggs-style type and want something deeper, anyone trying to understand a partner, friend or colleague, and coaches and managers building better teams.

Written by Spencer Stern, who has spent nearly twenty years making socionics practical for everyday listeners, and author of the Socionics Made Simple series.
