The Sibling Effect: What The Bonds Among Brothers And Sisters Reveal About Us (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
Through the analysis of the life and behavior of some "famous brothers" and several sketches of the life of the author, we have a more or less psychological examination of "how is the life" for people with siblings or, even if much reduced in terms of pages, without them.Attraverso l'analisi della vita e dei comportamenti di alcuni "fratelli famosi" piú parecchi spaccati della vita dell'autore, abbiamo una disamina piú o meno psicologica di quello che comporta avere dei fratelli o, per quanto trattato in modo molto ridotto, il non averne. This is a really interesting book and an easy, conversational read by Kluger of Time magazine. He weaves in details from his own family to help illustrate some of the more scientific points. I have to say, this work gives me whole new insights into my own brother's behavior, particularly when we were teen-agers and he took to belittling me on a regular basis. Maybe I should send him a copy of the book?

Good read. The author chronicles most of his life and not necessarily case studies.
