A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

Are you a 'typical' first, middle, last or single child? Can your birth order really determine your character?

We've all heard the stereotypes - first borns are natural leaders, middle borns are difficult, last borns are spoiled and single children are loners. But how accurate are those snapshots?

In this groundbreaking book, clinical psychologist Linda Blair provides an honest assessement of the effect of your birth order and considers what it really tells you about your childhood, your character, your relationships - even your choice of career. She also examines the factors that skew 'typical' birth-order characteristics, such as how you were parented and the sex and spacing of your siblings.

Written in a lively, personal style, Birth Order will unlock the keys to why you think, feel and behave in the ways that you do.

'This fascinating book gives a real understanding of how your character is formed from your position in the family and how this influences your behaviour in all aspects of your life'
Zelda West-Meads, You magazine, The Mail on Sunday

Présentation de l'éditeur :

On the basis of over 25 years' clinical experience and psychological research, Linda Blair reveals how your birth order position, as well as the spacing between you and your siblings and the sex of your siblings, impact your childhood, your adult life and your relationships.

Packed with new research and written in a lively, personal style, Birth Order will inform and intrigue. By reading this unique book you will quickly understand yourself, your family and your partner better. It will also shed light on the dynamics of your other relationships, explain why you may repeat patterns within relationships, and suggest helpful strategies for dealing with other people. Chapters cover birth order and what being the eldest, middle, or youngest child reveals about you, the effect of large or small age gaps between you and your siblings, family size, the sex of your siblings, parental attitudes to each child, being an only child, being a twin, the impact of step-siblings, and much more.
