What people
say about
The
Enneagram Movie & Video Guide
"A mine
of real gold! What is beguiling about Condon's work, besides
an
uncommonly fine literary style, is the clarity with which he
points
out Enneagram styles that most students have trouble
seeing."
– National Catholic Reporter
"Condon breaks new ground! If you watch
the movies, or even just read these reviews, your Enneagram
assessing
skills will increase dramatically."
- The Enneagram Educator
"A real find! Condon's movie guide provides
not only a snappy introduction to the Enneagram's
personality
types, but write-ups of about 1000 movies focusing on the
main
characters and their behaviors. A series of movies
exhibiting
one type will give the reader a great sense of both the
basic
issues and their variations for that type. Condon provides
capsule
reviews plus good viewing and study suggestions."
- Inner Journeys Book Review
"In becoming a psychotherapist it was
always clear that reading great novels taught me more than
any
psychology course. Thomas Condon has taken film-the art form
of
our time-to show the mind heart and bodily experience of
each
Enneagram style. Truly a great book!" -
Margaret
Frings Keyes Author, Emotions & The Enneagram
"Condon utilizes movie
characters to disclose the inner workings and psychodynamics
of
each style. This book is fun, well written and a great
source
of Enneagram instruction. The use of film is a powerful
method
for capturing the nuances and essence of every personality
style." -
Enneagram Monthly
"Not since Helen Palmer
broke the ice with her classic work The Enneagram has
learning
this fascinating system of personality types been so easy.
Considered
to be one of the oldest forms of psychological assessment,
the
Enneagram has remained elusive to many, but, thanks to
Thomas
Condon, here is a format that anyone can understand.
This book emphasizes
the illustration
of the nine Enneagram types through observation by providing
the
personality types for almost one thousand movie characters.
The
Guide is an easy read and functions as an admission ticket
to a realm in which we can gain a deeper understanding of
movie
characters and personality types.
This is a must-read
for people
who already know the Enneagram - it will help them to deepen
their
insights - and it is a great introduction for the newcomer.
The
actors and movies are clearly indexed so readers can easily
find
their favorite actors and delve deeply into the movie
characters'
psyches. There is no stuffy psychobabble, just clear
descriptions
about using our most celebrated medium - film - as a tool of
psychological
discovery.
Get The Enneagram
Movie
and Video Guide and display it in your store. It will be a
steady seller for a long time." -
Mark Husson, Twelfth House Bookstore - New Age Retailer
"Have you ever watched a movie and wondered,
"Why did that character do that?" If you have, read
The Enneagram Movie and Video Guide by Thomas Condon, the
one and only book to review the movies and their characters
in
terms of the Enneagram, a popular psychological system of
personality
types. For example, Meg Ryan's character in When Harry Met
Sally
was a 6 with a 7 wing. Robert De Niro in Raging Bull was an
8.
With The Enneagram Movie and Video Guide
you won't have to analyze your friends. Instead, you'll have
thousands
of characters at your disposal - and you can watch them
behave
over and over just by pressing "rewind." This is a wonderful
book for learning and/or increasing your understanding of
the
Enneagram.
