Customer Reviews
Basically it's just an access code
The code inside enables you to take the test to discover your strengths. Once you have done the test, you get can download your profile as well as a description of the 34 strengths tested by the online questionnaire. This description of 34 strengths you can download is the same as the bulk of the book. Gallup would be better off to arrange for a paid inscription to their website and don't waste time on the book.
I'm sure there has been a lot of research in the making of the test but nothing reflects in the book. Gallup says the results aren't supposed to change a lot over a lifetime and it shouldn't be influenced by your current state of mind, fatigue or stress. But other then "trust us, we've used this tests thousands of times" they offer no proof of those claims.
It's a nice to have the 34 strengths handy but a more developed book would be better.
Eye-Opening
Strengths Finder 2.0 not only helped me to learn more about myself, but it gave me a greater understanding (and tolerance) of those around me. It is an interactive book that requires the reader to take a test that helps to reveal one's strengths. It can also be quite fun to partake of the test with family, friends and co-workers. Another interesting book is Personality Plus by Florence Littauer.

Great at describing your personality, with no useful advice about what to do with it
The online test is stunningly accurate and described me far better than I've managed to do myself. The strength finder however had no followup on this with little useful advice about what these traits would be suited to.
