A century of genetic research shows that DNA differences inherited from our parents are the consistent lifelong sources of our psychological individuality—the blueprint that makes us who we are.\n\nPlomin reports that genetics explains more about the psychological differences among people than all other factors combined. Nature, not nurture, is what makes us who we are. Plomin explores the implications of these findings, drawing some provocative conclusions—among them that parenting styles don't really affect children's outcomes once genetics is taken into effect.\n\nThis book offers readers a unique insider’s view of the exciting synergies that came from combining genetics and psychology.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0262537982\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0262537982.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Plomin, Robert\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
