Enneagram
This book is split into two sections. The first is Clinical Enneagram, developed by Naranjo and his students, Maitri, Duran and Catalan, and so on. The second section is Protoanalysis, the original system of the Enneagram developed by Ichazo and some his students, Lilly and Hart, Bernadette Schmidt, Almaas, and Dueck.
