Publisher Synopsis
<br>"The first published volume resulting from the MacArthur Longitudinal Twin Study, a collaboration of developmental scientists and behavioral geneticists. They offer an original theoretical framework explaining how changes occur in different domains, and how genetics and the environment influence those changes. Among their findings are that development is multifaceted, genetic and environmental influences vary in magnitude and type depending on the behavior, and genetic factors largely account for continuity while non-shared environmental factors account for change."--SciTech Book News<br>"In this first volume resulting from the MacArthur Longitudinal Twin Study (MLTS), Emde and Hewitt adeptly organized reams of data comparing genetic and environmental influences on developmental changes into six parts and 25 succinct chapters. . .Despite the many contributors to this work (most respected in the field) and the highly technical nature of some of the analyses, the book is a superb ill Read more...
