Reviews

For researchers interested in the differential experiences of children in the same family, I highly recommend this edited collection....this is well-written material which deals intelligently with the social worlds of young siblings, an alliance only recently appreciated and acknowledged as integral to family processes. I consider it a 'must read' for anyone interested in the social development of children and adolescents in their families. -ISSPR Bulletin ...a concise book that is essential reading for anyone wanting to look at where developmental psychology is heading. These authors with their colleagues put forward the rationale for a new study that will be a classic in the field, as it will demonstrate empirically the richness and value of defining important links of non-shared environmental to developmental processes. We will never look at family environmenatl and developmental processes in the same way....Separate Social Worlds of Siblings....is a glorious Fourth of July display of fireworks. In other words, it is awesome! -Contemporary Psychology This volume includes several new and compelling contributions to the literature on nonshared environment....recommended for researchers and students with some acquaintance with current issues in behavioral-genetic research. -Human Etiology Bulletin
