A beautiful 'Book Fair' was organised in this year's Exhibition (also called Numaish) in Aligarh in Feb. I bought about a dozen books in this fair. 'Surrounded by Idiots' by Thomas Erikson came as a highly recommended book by the shopkeeper.
This book is basically a study on the personality traits/types and how to converse with them, how to manage them and how to deal with them. As per the book there are 4 types of persons:
1. Red (Dominant, Aggresive, Egoist)
2. Yellow (Extrovert, Talkative, Egotist)
3. Green (Submissive, Quiet, Worker, Introvert)
4. Blue (Perfectionist, Analytical worker, Introvert)
I don't know whether its correct to compartmentalise people or not but in a way this books gives certain ideas about behavioural aspects of people.
The title of the book is a kind of misnomer.
Wish you all a very happy Holi. May this festival bring lot of happiness and colour in your lives.
