📔Surrounded by Idiots Thomas Erikson St Martin’s Essentials Publication date : October 6, 2020 304 pages, Paperback Ever feel like you’re surrounded by people who just don’t get you? Thomas Erikson dives right into that feeling with his lively and insightful guide to communication. Using a simple color-coded system — Reds, Yellows, Greens, and Blues — he breaks down the four main behavior types we meet every day. With humor and relatable examples, he shows how understanding others’ colors (and your own!) can make every conversation smoother, whether at work, home, or anywhere in between. Accessible, practical, and surprisingly fun, Surrounded by Idiots turns personality clashes into learning moments. It’s not a deep dive into academic psychology — more of a bright, real-world toolkit for anyone who’s ever wondered why “common sense” isn’t so common after all!
