Sixteen Men: Understanding Masculine Personality Types
by Loren E. Pedersen

Boston: Shambhala, 1993

This is the first book to look at masculine psychology specifically in terms of the sixteen types of character and temperament identified by C. G. Jung and familiar to the millions who have taken the Myers-Briggs Type Inventory to determine their own type. The author

  • presents portraits of men who demonstrate the sixteen personality types, grouped into the Dreamers, the Thinkers, the Doers, and the Idea Men
  • show how men differ from women of the same personality type
  • explains how problems in communication between men and women are often caused by differences in type rather than gender
  • shows how type affects a man's relationship with his parents and children, his wife or lover, and his boss and co-workers
  • demonstrates how self-understanding and healing can be brought about by working with this important facet of masculine psychology

Loren E. Pedersen, Ph.D., is a licensed clinical psychologist and Jungian analyst in private practice in Walnut Creek, California. He is also the author of Dark Hearts: The Hidden Forces That Shape Men's Lives.
