I would’ve actually wanted to give 4 stars to the second half and 3 to the first halve. The book offers a systematic treatment of what an integrated character looks like and which traits are associated with it. I think the content could have be condensed, which I think happened more in the second half. It follows the usual structure of self help book by providing case studies of people to exemplify traits and how they are expressed. I just find that too long. Should you read it? Yes, I think there are some valuable insights for everyone who is willing to take a close, honest look at oneself (and others). Of course the real work is trying to improve in the identified areas.
