Reviews"The Wisdom of the Enneagramis a very important book. By combining the horizontal types of the Enneagram with a system of vertical levels of awareness, Riso and Hudson have produced one of the first truly integrated models of the human psyche. In addition to the importance of this pioneering work itself, it goes to point up the utter inadequacy of anything less than a full-spectrum model of human growth and development. Highly recommended." --Ken Wilber, author ofThe Marriage of Sense and Soul "I highly recommend this book, not only to anyone on the path of personal transformation, but to anyone who wants to understand the complex inner world of others, whether a spouse, family member co-worker or friend. The questionnaires were fun and illuminating. I received some very helpful information about myself, felt challenged to grow and experienced a deepening of compassion. Perhaps the most profound contribution ofThe Wisdom of the Enneagramis reflected in the word "Wisdom." The authors clearly communicate the complexity of human nature, the spiritual yearning resonant in all of us, and the ascending levels of our possibility. But they do not leave us there. They offer a clear path for personal and spiritual evolution." --Harville Hendrix, Ph.D., author ofGetting the Love You Want "Don Riso and Russ Hudson thoughtfully engage the richness and depth of the Enneagram, and conjure with its power as a tool of transformation.The Wisdom of the Enneagramis filled with its own wisdom and depth. You'll find yourself returning to it over and over again and discovering new treasures." --Tony Schwartz, author ofWhat Really Matters "The Wisdom of the Enneagramis not only a clear and comprehensive description and discussion of this ancient personality typology, but also a major and original contribution to its use and further development. Don Riso and Russ Hudson have designed simple practical guidelines and tests that make it possible to determine one's own personality type and use this knowledge for healing and psychospiritual transformation." --Stanislav Grof, M.D., author ofThe Adventure of Self-Discovery, " The Wisdom of the Enneagram is a very important book.

  • An authoritative source on the enneagram

    I first encountered the enneagram several years ago when I was seeing a counselor who had studied under Riso and Hudson The experience was quite illuminating in many ways. This book was a useful supplement to those sessions. I have recently found renewed interest in the enneagram and what it can teach me about myself and thus have finally acquired my own copy of the book. If you're ready to delve more deeply into the enneagram, this book is a highly recommended resource from two authorities on the subject.

  • Improve yourself and the world around you

    Fr. RIchard Rohr (Center for Action and Contemplation) recently did a series on the Enneagram and I found it fascinating. If there is any way to improve myself to better serve God and community, I'm all for it.

  • Not my cup of tea.

    If you like this sort of thing its fine. For me its "been there and done that." Not a fan. On the other hand the book is quite usable and came quickly so there's that.
