ABOUT THIS BOOK:
The present book is about normal human personality, and its aim is to explore the effects of social environment and upbringing as much as to elucidate the nature of genetical factors. Its functions are thus complementary to those of the average textbook of genetics. It deals with a topic of obvious interest and importance, but one where many geneticists fear to tread and where some would say they had no business. This book shows that there is indeed a genetical background to the varying manifestations of personality.(Publisher). Very good / very good. Item #15326
