Summary "In The Normal Personality, Steven Reiss argues that human beings are naturally intolerant of people who express values significantly different from their own. Because of this intolerance, he asserts that psychologists and psychiatrists sometimes confuse individuality with abnormality and thus overdiagnose disorders." "Calling for greater understanding and tolerance of all kinds of personalities, Reiss applies his theory of motivation to leadership, human development, relationships, and counseling."--BOOK JACKET.
