Socionics Visualization and Mathematics 1st Edition by Andrew Joynton

“Socionics Visualization and Mathematics explores a rigorous, mathematically grounded approach to socionics, aiming to elevate it from interpretive theory to a more testable science. Joynton develops a vector‑space model of type dichotomies—both Jungian and Reinin—and demonstrates how relationships among types can be formalized through algebraic operations and symmetries. He also tackles the foundational assumptions of socionics, such as the logic/ethics dichotomy and the identity element, by proposing falsifiable tests and identity-based typing frameworks. The work is aimed at those seeking a visual and mathematical formalization of socionic structures, with diagrams and algebraic constructs that illustrate type relationships in a more systematic and replicable fashion.
