Yes, it is a great help for players and the GM (for NPC´s) alike.
It goes beyond attitude. With it comes stuff like hobbys, traits like alcoholism, reasons why your stepmother killed crazy uncle harold, etc.
Good times with these books. I use´em for most of my games, and the players always liked it, when their character-stats & the "Heroes"-background suddenly "unfolded" a real character.
Apart from the title ("Heroes of.."), the content is toned down enough, to make it fit for convincing personalitys. Nice to hear that you use it too!
