Features: This book is both thought-provoking and engaging, and it should be a must-read for everyone. How does an egg grow into Shakespeare, or into you? How do genes, environment, and education influence our development throughout life? This fascinating book lifts the veil of mystery and guides us to understand these questions correctly. If you want to read only one book about human behavior, open this one! How do we become individuals? What role do genes play in the formation of our personality and behavior? Is our personality fixed, or does it change as we grow? How do our early experiences influence our sexual choices? This book explains the wonderful process of how a fertilized egg develops into a unique individual from a behavioral perspective. Unlike traditional theories of nature versus nurture, this book offers a fresh perspective and uses clear, vivid language to illustrate the complex process and changes of individual development.
