NPA Personality Theory in Images (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781387230273)

by A. M. Benis, Sc.D., M.D. This book brings together 105 evocative images that illustrate the essential elements of the NPA model of personality. Particular attention is given to gestures, poses and behaviorisms. Personality types are illustrated with the use of caricatures of well-known individuals and images of historical figures, where you will meet individuals as diverse as Mary Lincoln, Angela Merkel and Rasputin. Topics include narcissism, perfectionism, aggression, dominance and submissiveness, inversions, as well as conditions such as the autistic savant, Down's syndrome and panic disorder. A chapter of images is devoted to the evolutionary origins of personality traits and to their geographic distribution. For readers not acquainted with the NPA model, a synopsis of the basic theory is included in the Appendix. For those interested in a novel theory of personality based on genetic traits, this book would serve as a fine introduction. Oversized softcover, 8.5 x 11 in., 158 pp., 105 plates, Glossary.
