The Color Code is a fun read that provides tremendous insights into people’s personalities. Dr. Hartman’s goal is to help people better understand themselves and others by discovering their motives – why they do what they do.

After a brief introduction the reader takes a fun Personality Profile Test that identifies a person’s personality type. Four colors (red, blue, white and yellow) are used as metaphors of the four different types. Though most people are a blend of different colors, Dr. Hartman believes that one color/personality is more dominant in each person.

As you read you’ll find yourself repeatedly thinking, “That’s me!” And if you read with a spouse or children you’ll hear everyone saying, “That’s so you!”

This book helped me in my relationships with my wife and children. It has also been very helpful in my profession and church callings. Fun and insightful.
