Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 We do name-calling all the time. It is a method of cataloging people, and it is a handy device to help us remember those identifying characteristics and store that information for future reference. But we tend to have mixed feelings about it, especially when it is done in the name of science. #2 Typewatching is a method of responding to name-calling that is based on the idea that as long as we're going to do it, we might as well do it as skillfully, objectively, and constructively as possible. It is easy to learn and use, and it can help teachers teach and students learn. #3 Typewatching is a judgment-free psychological system that explains normal rather than abnormal psychology. It celebrates differences, uses them creatively, and constructively rather than to create strife. #4 The roots of Typewatching date back to the 1920s, when the Swiss-born psychiatrist C. G. Jung proposed that human behavior is not random but is instead predictable and classifiable. He suggested that differences in behavior are the result of preferences related to the basic functions of our personalities.
