In this wonderfully readable book, two distinguished scientists, Patrick Bateson and Paul Martin, explain how biology (nature) and psychology (nurture) join to shape the behavior of individual human beings. They counter the mistaken notion that individual genes solely determine certain personality traits; instead, they explain the role genes actually play in the formation of personality. Shows how change is a vital component of human behavior, restoring the concept of free will to its central place in human psychology.
