How to analyze people on sight through the science of human analysis the five human types
Elsie Lincoln Benedict Ralph Paine Benedict22IMPORTANT The Five Extremes This book deals with PURE or UNMIXED types only. When you understand these, the significance of their several combinations as seen in everyday life will be clear to you. The Human Alphabet Just as you can not understand the meaning of a word until you know the letters that go into the makeup of that word, you cannot analyze people accurately until you get these five extreme types firmly in your mind, for they are your alphabet. Founded in Five Biological Systems Each PURE type is the result of the over-development of one of the five biological systems possessed by all human beings--the nutritive, circulatory, muscular, bony or nervous. Therefore every individual exhibits to some degree the characteristics of all the five types. The Secret of Individuality But his PREDOMINANT traits and INDIVIDUALITY--the things that make him the KIND of man he is--agree infallibly with whichever one of the five systems PREDOMINATES in him. Combinations Common in America The average American man or woman is a COMBINATION of some two of these types with a third discernible in the background. To Analyze People To understand human beings familiarize yourself first with the PURE or UNMIXED types and then it will be easy and fascinating to spell out their combinations and what they mean in the people all about you. Postpone Combinations Until you have learned these pure types thoroughly it will be to your advantage to forget that there is such a thing as combinations. After you have these extreme types well in mind you will be ready to analyze combinations.
