A Fun Book...Not Too Serious
Read this work several times. It is obvious a fun book with brief chapters dealing with a variety of "common" personality types found in the work place. Even though it contains psychological things, it appears to be primarily a "tongue-in-cheek" book using Greek Mythology names for the subject employee types. Of course, the "died-in-the-wool" Psychologists or Management Experts will criticize the book as being trite, lame, and not "backed by scientific research." However, my honest opinion is that this book was intended as both a fun piece and some diverted reading for individuals working in management, personnel psychology, and human resources. It also is a touch candid in the comparisons and even "arrow shooting" at certain employee types that are either irritating and/or whatever. Try it! You'll hopefully like it as I did.
