I couldn't believe that only one person had reviewed this very valuable book, so although it's been too long since I read it, I had to just weigh in... a must-read. I have been telling stories from this book in conversation in the years since I read it, like the one about the twins, separated at birth, who both washed their hands in the same way, scrubbing them until they actually turned red. When asked why, one said his adopted mother was a neatnik so she taught him to wash his hands well. The other explained that since his adoptive mother was a slob, he rebelled by cleaning his hands extra well. What was apparent was that the explanation came after the fact; actually they were born with the proclivity to wash their hands in a certain way. Not only did this cast a light on how our personality is genetically influenced, but also on they way people explain things without the actual connection to reality! Full of insight and changes the way one understands oneself and others.
