The readership of this book should include those with either a clinical or research interest in temperament.

However, those with a particular research interest will find it an invaluable baseline from which to work.

The issues of methodology and validity or research findings are addressed in many sections and it is this critical approach which keeps the text interesting as well as informative. ?In summary this would be an excellent book for psychologists who have a particular research or clinical interest in temperament?"
