Elsie Lincoln Benedict was considered the world's most famous lecturer during the 1920s, speaking to over 3 million people in her lifetime and writing on what Napoleon Hill and Dale Carnegie and a long list of men would do later. She was an American suffragist leader, representing the State of Colorado for the Women's Right to Vote. Benedict was a pioneer and well respected expert in the fields of psychoanalysis, sociology, and biology. In this book, with the help of her husband, Ralph, she posits a theory that all humans can be divided into five types.

When this book was published in 1921, Elsie Lincoln Benedict's How to Analyze People on Sight was received as a serious scientific work of analytic sociology, but fast forward 90 years and the same words ring hilariously. Apparently well intended at the time, the book appears to invent the very notion of stereotyping.
