The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is the most popular personality test in the world. It is used regularly by Fortune 500 companies, universities, hospitals, churches, and the military. Its language of personality types - extraversion and introversion, sensing and intuiting, thinking and feeling, judging and perceiving - has inspired television shows, Online dating platforms, and Buzzfeed quizzes. Yet despite the test's widespread adoption, experts in the field of psychometric testing, a $2 billion industry, have struggled to validate its results - no less account for its success.

well reported and written, the book tears apart the mbti, but makes too broad claims about personality testing. there are reputation based clinical and nonclinical tests that, unlike the mbti, have test-retest validity, convergent validity and are psychometrically sound. the underlying gender bias and racial bias and poor psychometric properties, make it unconscionable to use the mbti for selection, assignments or anything more serious than fortune telling. it would have been interesting hear from it's corporate or organizational psychology defenders
