Why Him? Why Her?: Understanding Your Personality Type and Finding the Perfect Match by Helen Fisher
3.0
I was thinking "Ridiculous title -- and not *another* personality system!" -- but it turned out to be interesting and valuable. Plus I discovered that lots of my friends had heard of Helen Fisher, from a Ted talk she did, so I had some fun conversations about it. And, I guess I'll admit that I took away a lot of good tips about relationships, not just romantic but with anyone. I'm always fascinated to think about how people may be wired differently and how to work with them most smoothly -- I don't think I've ever encountered a personality system I didn't feel compelled to master (Fisher would say that's my "Negotiator" personality type at work!).
The brain science behind the author's work in studies about relationships and as a designing consultant for Match.com and Chemistry.com is interesting -- each of her personality types is associated with a different brain chemical, and studies have correlated the different chemicals with different human behaviors.
If you're reading this and we're friends, I probably have opinions on what your primary and secondary types are, according to this, so feel free to ask :)
