Summary: Don't buy used/ preowned copies of this book without checking first
Comment: The book provides an access code to complete a strengthsfinder assessment online.
Don't do what I did and buy a pre-owned copy, because the previous owner had already used the code, so I was unable to complete the assessment.
I had to buy a new copy to get a valid access code to use the online assessment tool.
Customer Rating:     
Summary: Basically it's just an access code
Comment: The code inside enables you to take the test to discover your strengths. Once you have done the test, you get can download your profile as well as a description of the 34 strengths tested by the online questionnaire. This description of 34 strengths you can download is the same as the bulk of the book. Gallup would be better off to arrange for a paid inscription to their website and don't waste time on the book.
I'm sure there has been a lot of research in the making of the test but nothing reflects in the book. Gallup says the results aren't supposed to change a lot over a lifetime and it shouldn't be influenced by your current state of mind, fatigue or stress. But other then "trust us, we've used this tests thousands of times" they offer no proof of those claims.
It's a nice to have the 34 strengths handy but a more developed book would be better.

Summary: Eye-Opening
Comment: Strengths Finder 2.0 not only helped me to learn more about myself, but it gave me a greater understanding (and tolerance) of those around me. It is an interactive book that requires the reader to take a test that helps to reveal one's strengths. It can also be quite fun to partake of the test with family, friends and co-workers. Another interesting book is Personality Plus by Florence Littauer.

Customer Rating:     
Summary: Great at describing your personality, with no useful advice about what to do with it
Comment: The online test is stunningly accurate and described me far better than I've managed to do myself. The strength finder however had no followup on this with little useful advice about what these traits would be suited to.
Customer Rating:     
Summary: King Herod just opened a crèche
Comment: 98% Inspiration and 2% Perspiration in the discovery and development of personal strengths must encourage all to uncover what they do best.
Most when asked, "Name four personal strengths you possess". Look at you as though you have just announced `King Herod just opened a crèche on the corner of their road'.
If you want to get ahead in life you should at least understand `what makes you tick' by revealing, even uncovering and discovering what your psychological drives are and how to build them daily, weekly and monthly so you strive to reach maximum enjoyment and satisfaction in all you do.
Tom Rath author offers the above solutions in Strength Finder 2.0. It provides a real return on investment and the WoW factor is sensational. It is `a must' for all seriously wanting to reach the Whitenburgh motto `least effort - maximum benefit' in every aspect of life.
Recommend a buy - bought four additional copies as presents for business friends and my family.
