From the Back Cover

Ever wonder why you just can't get along with certain people? Why you pick the friends you do? Why you chose the career path you're on?

It's all about birth order.

Birth order powerfully influences who you are, whom you marry, the job you choose, and the kind of parent you are. The Birth Order Book will help you understand yourself, get along better with others, overcome ingrained tendencies you never thought you could get rid of, be more successful in the workplace, and be a more effective parent. And if you don't fit the typical mold for your birth order, you'll find out why.

Thousands of people have unlocked the secrets of birth order already. Shouldn't you be one of them?

So many answers to questions he had about why he is the way he is . A great family man, excellent career, always thoughtful of others, but needed more information about himself. He finished this second book cover to cover also and quickly. Tons of solid information.

4.0 out of 5 stars Helps with Understanding Others
Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2020

I liked this book, although I did a lot of skimming in places. But overall, it helped me to understand others a little better, including my family members and I can now see why they have the traits they do. I have asked a few friends, "Are you the youngest in your family?" Or depending on the person, "Are you the oldest... or middle." So far I've been right each time.

This book was recommended by a patient at the dental office I work. OMG now I can almost guess the order in which people were born by just listening to them . I hope that when I’m done with this read it helps me understand certain co workers and everyone in general

I had a copy of this in book form for many years, often referred to it and passed it around. I have bought a copy in kindle form so I have it at hand whenever I want to read more. This is a definite must-read for any large or mixed families in particular. Well written, easy to understand, thoughtful ponderings.
