Beginning with the now-famous University of Minnesota twins study, the author writes about twin and adoption studies that have sought to establish proof of a genetic influence in human behavior, and corroborates these findings with research in molecular biology that underlines the links between genes and personality. He also describes the evolution of theories concerning mental illness and the mind-body connection, and discusses the widespread acceptance of Freudian theory, which puts all emphasis on early childhood to explain human behavior. Informative, insightful and highly entertaining for both the public and professionals in the field, Born That Way is a stimulating look at one of the most exciting fields of research on the frontier of science.
