Summary
Disputes between Ecuador and Peru are nearly 200 years old and revolve around the question of Ecuador's territory extending beyond the Andes and into the Amazonian basin - or not。
Based on diverse interpretations of the Real Cedulas （Royal Proclamations） Spain used to define its colonial territories in the Americas， they became the source of the longest-running international armed conflict in the Western Hemisphere。
Despite numerous attempts at a negotiated definition of the borders， the two countries fought no less than three wars during the 20th Century。 Tensions dating back to the 19th Century resulted in skirmishes in 1938， which escalated into a war fought in July 1941。 Further armed clashes took place in early 1981， and again in 1995。
Based on extensive research in the official archives of the Fuerza A�rea del Per� （FAP）， as well as documentation from multiple private sources， 'The Air Wars Between Ecuador and Peru， Volume 1' is the story of a little-known and brief， yet intensive and bitter aerial war。 Taking place at the time that World War II savaged most of Europe， this conflict has attracted little attention outside Ecuador and Peru - although it is unique as significant for the studies of causes and resolutions of international conflicts: the two countries share not only language， culture， religious preferences， and social and ethnic diversity， but economic difficulties。 Moreover， for most of their modern times， they have been democracies。 Thus， their wars put in doubt the common contention that 'democracies never go to war with each other'。
Using sources from both parties of the conflict， 'The Air Wars between Ecuador and Peru， Volume 1' avoids the usual， biased and one-sided coverage of conflicts between Ecuador and Peru。 It provides intricate details on the military capabilities and intentions of armed forces on both sides， their training， planning， and the conduct of combat operations。
Moreover， illustrated with over 100 exclusive photographs， most of which have never been published before， half a dozen maps and 15 colour profiles， this book provides the first authoritative account of the air warfare between Ecuador and Peru in July 1941。 As such it is an indispensable source of reference for professionals and enthusiasts alike。

To be honest I didn’t finish it， the idea that everyone can be identified as one of 4 colours （ but then some people can can be a mix of two colours） doesn’t sit with me。 I’m not keen on the style of writing， it’s very anecdotal， filled with the author’s encounters with ‘reds’ or ‘blues’。 The book is ok there are just better books I could be reading！

Nothing special in this one。 Its just that what most people know but can't put to words is presented in an understandable way。 By the end it felt， it was more for promotion of own work by the author。 The questionnaire in the end lets you know whether you've understood the system or not but what I found missing was the questionnaire to judge yourself。 That probably would be shared if you avail the services of Author's company ;） Nothing special in this one。 Its just that what most people know but can't put to words is presented in an understandable way。 By the end it felt， it was more for promotion of own work by the author。 The questionnaire in the end lets you know whether you've understood the system or not but what I found missing was the questionnaire to judge yourself。 That probably would be shared if you avail the services of Author's company ;） 。。。more

Interesting， but nothing new for people who read a bit about personalities / human behavior。 I felt there was quite a bit of filler that could've been cut out without losing the essence of the book。 Fine for what it is but nothing spectacular。 Interesting， but nothing new for people who read a bit about personalities / human behavior。 I felt there was quite a bit of filler that could've been cut out without losing the essence of the book。 Fine for what it is but nothing spectacular。 。。。more

Cele patru tipuri de temperament ale lui Hipocrate explicate prin viziunea， experienta si studiile individuale ale unui analist comportamental。Exemplele sunt orientate catre o perspectiva managerială dar sunt expuse într-o notă amuzantă și optimistă。

The book is very hard hitting in examining the the sense of thinking why doesn't other people understand the way one does。 Alternatively put， as the author pens it - why am I surrounded by idiots！ This book is funny and informative at the same time based on a behavior profiling research tool useful for real-life analysis。 An interesting book based on the DISC system of behavior/Temperament assessment。 The first few chapters of the book outlines the basic types D， I， S， C and their normal modalit The book is very hard hitting in examining the the sense of thinking why doesn't other people understand the way one does。 Alternatively put， as the author pens it - why am I surrounded by idiots！ This book is funny and informative at the same time based on a behavior profiling research tool useful for real-life analysis。 An interesting book based on the DISC system of behavior/Temperament assessment。 The first few chapters of the book outlines the basic types D， I， S， C and their normal modalities of behavior， general temperament and motivators。 I could see myself very much in the explanation given particular to my category and the real-life situations illustrated in this book。 Reading other individual types， I could see myself laughing at how accurate mine was， yelling at certain types and how irksome some others were。 The later chapters are focused towards how to get along， communication and what annoys each type。 I found these chapters particularly interesting as I could see why certain disagreements with people arose and how each type understands the problems from their point of view。 The chapter corresponding to 'which types get along with each other' made total sense。 It was interesting to read the contrasting perspectives and how certain types naturally get along and others butt heads。 I could compare it with all the people in my life whom I get along with and notice similarities and patterns to outlined types。 Last chapter focuses on a bit of theory giving a historical basis for the work illustrated in this book。 Mainly focused on William Moulten Marsten's work on 'Emotions of Normal people'， which later popularized as 'DISA' system of behavioral profiling and some historical perspective for those interested in a little bit further research。 There are also some interesting anecdotes picked up from different cultures which has similar way to categorizing people's behavior。 The book is fairly dense without any academic jargon targeted towards general audience。 Easy to stop and continue chapters。 There is no need read it in a continuous fashion， one can pick up chapters at any order and finish it。 Although it would make sense to read the type description chapters first before skipping chapters。 Overall good read， definitely recommended for anyone interested in self-improvement also for anyone in business sector。 Would be an asset for HR folks。 。。。more

It's a good book， easy to read， informative。 I hope I will be able to use what I've learned about communication with others。 It's a good book， easy to read， informative。 I hope I will be able to use what I've learned about communication with others。 。。。more

If you already read about Sanguine， Choleric， Melancholic and Phlegmatic， you can add this for your next reading。

Ponderous， yet entertaining。 Not sure if any of it is valid since there’s so much controversy on the internet。 But overall， an interesting approach to a non scientist’s view of personalities and behaviors。

It all makes sense now， for someone who isn't read up on human psychology， behaviour and personality traits。It's very simplified and generalised but a lot of the information holds true if you can swallow generalisation。 I don't think that necessarily is misleading or makes the book bad， as many in other reviews believe。 It all makes sense now， for someone who isn't read up on human psychology， behaviour and personality traits。It's very simplified and generalised but a lot of the information holds true if you can swallow generalisation。 I don't think that necessarily is misleading or makes the book bad， as many in other reviews believe。 。。。more

I liked this book and learned a ton about myself and the people I love ！ Learned about how to interact better with people according to their “color” 。 I wish I would have known this earlier in life

Would give it five stars easily if it wasn't so full of grammatical errors。 This was such an interesting read， I now know I fall solidly into the Yellow personality type and have been psychoanalysing my boyfriend with his Blue personality all afternoon。 Would give it five stars easily if it wasn't so full of grammatical errors。 This was such an interesting read， I now know I fall solidly into the Yellow personality type and have been psychoanalysing my boyfriend with his Blue personality all afternoon。 。。。more

Perhaps this works better in a meeting format and then reading it straight through as a book。 I found aspects of it very redundant and I also found the delineation between types a little bit severe。 I think we’re all on a spectrum between colors。

Oversimplified and reductionist。 Places people in neat， 1-D， immutable boxes that fails to consider the complexity of people， their wants and needs， and their ability to change。

A great conceptThe author presents an interesting evolution of the four temperaments/ four humours theory developed by Hippocrates。It was great to see these put into the context of a business environment - to really help the reader see the different types in those they work with every single day。They also provided lots of great advice for not only recognizing these types but how to deal with them in different situations。

I didn’t see much of practicality of this book ， there is a case build on 4 types of personality however I believe there are many more dimensions to it than funnel into 4 broad categories。 How people behave is contextual and behavioural driven ， as long as you are having good presence of EQ ， this book is not necessary

Halfway that's all I could handle reading。 I felt like the same information was being recycled over and over。 There was a point that I put it down and came back a week later and it still irritated me。 Not worth the time reading。 Halfway that's all I could handle reading。 I felt like the same information was being recycled over and over。 There was a point that I put it down and came back a week later and it still irritated me。 Not worth the time reading。 。。。more

A fun read。 I enjoyed it alot， it shines the light on the differences of the people between us。 Simply written。 However， as the authour emphasized it takes practice and if you are willing and persistent it will help you alot in your workplace and home environment。 The book provides so many real-life examples which I found helped alot in processing the information。

I felt this book became very repetitive towards the end。 It was informative but I feel as though the book didn’t offer enough information for its length
