More about the book

The runaway international bestseller is now fully revised and updated. Do you ever feel like you’re the only one making sense? Have you tried reasoning with your partner, only to face disaster? You’re not alone. Communication expert Thomas Erikson explores why we struggle to connect with certain personality types. This book categorizes people into four core personality types—Red, Yellow, Green, and Blue—to clarify their baffling behaviors and enhance your self-understanding. You’ll learn to improve your communication and social skills based on who you’re interacting with, manage conflicts confidently, and maximize your interactions. The revised edition offers fresh insights and a new translation, incorporating feedback from Erikson’s over 10 million global readers, resulting in 30% more material. This classic toolkit is enriched with 'aha!' and 'oh no!' moments, designed to help you understand and influence those around you, even those you find incomprehensible. With a bit of luck, you might also discover that the "idiot" isn’t you! This edition marks a significant moment for fans of Erikson's work, solidifying its status as a no.1 Sunday Times bestseller in November 2023.
