The Essential Enneagram: The Definitive Personality Test and Self-Discovery Guide -- Revised & Updated by David Daniels, Virginia Price

4.0

Of all the Enneagram resources that I have encountered, this book is the most accessible. It provides a succinct introduction to the 9 types without sacrificing a deep look at the motivations, struggles, and strengths of each type. I found that the self-test is also much better than any of the other short tests I've encountered. It's simple but challenging which primes the reader for the paradoxical challenge that naturally comes with attempting to better understand oneself. My favorite parts of the book are the comparison paragraphs and the tools for personal development based on type at the end. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn the basics of this system and of their type.
