Strengthsfinder 2.0 by Tom Rath
3.0
Buying the book allows you to obtain an access code (good for only one user) that lets you take the Strengths Finder 2.0 test. There is no other way to obtain an access code apart from purchasing the book. That means if you already own the book and your spouse wants to take the test, he needs to purchase the book as well. It's a great ploy for selling books. But if Gallup allowed people to purchase an access code without buying the book, I'm sure they would have made quite a bit more money and reached more people.
In any event, the access code for one user per book gives me the sense of a limited audience reach.
I initially borrowed the book from the library, but exhausted the book within minutes as the rest of the book deals with the descriptions of the 34 strength themes---themes the reader can only understand after taking the test. The descriptions for each theme are relatively short with a few testimonies provided for each and ideas for action that challenge the reader to capitalize upon the strengths identified.
I exhausted the book in a day and now refer to it occasionally. However, I did learn quite a bit about my strengths and something I had considered a weakness, the book considers a strength so I'll need to see how that plays out.
