Personality and Prejudice is an examination of institutional discrimination of introverted reflective learners in schools and society. As a follow up to his 2015 book, Learning and Personality, Dr. Lawrence continues his analysis with this revealing examination of the history and methods of personality prejudice. Lawrence reveals a gross alienation of a large portion of the American student body from the elementary to college level. As an advocate for meaningful, learning-centered discussion and genuine student participation in class, Lawrence warns of prejudice toward introverted students who tend to learn through observation and reflection. This book is a defense of introverts and a call for their inclusion in schools. The book concludes with recommendations on how teachers, administrators, and parents might contend with such discrimination and how we can better accommodate all learners, including those with intrapersonal intelligence.
