Why First Borns Rule the World and Last Borns want to Change it
By Michael Grose.
 Recognised around the world as a landmark book on birth order. This book outlines the impact of birth order on children's behaviour and personality development.
As a parenting book it helps make sense of sibling rivalry and kids fighting and offers guidance about how to make your parenting match each birth order position.
Why is it that children in a family can share the same gene pool, a similar socio-economic environment and experience similar parenting styles yet have fundamentally different personalities, interests and even different careers as adults? Birth order!
The implications for parents, teachers and adults involved with children are many. But this book also provides answers to all your questions about the personality and behaviour of your colleagues, life partner, friends and siblings. And, perhaps explains some of your own ambitions and quirks.
Addressing multiple births, special needs children, genetic engineering, blended families, gender balance, single children and birth-order balance in the workplace, parenting expert and father of three Michael Grose challenges parents to raise each child differently according to his or her birth order.
