Reviews and Endorsements

Stephen Johnson’s Character Styles is a scholarly exploration of the most profound psychological mysteries: what determines human behavior and what we can do about its destructive manifestations. Dr. Johnson’s response to this challenge is distinguished by a vastly informed, deeply felt intelligence. Together with his previous three volumes, Character Styles provides a major contribution to the literature of the healing arts.

This book will be useful to all psychotherapists. It is an eminently readable review that integrates and extends several literatures. Disturbances of personality, due to maladaptive character development, are examined with theories of causation that are linked to techniques for change. Therapists will find the lucid, conversational style of highest interest.
