Harley is in Karakarook to foster Heritage & Douglas is there to pull down the quaint old Bent Bridge. From day one theyre on a collison course. But out of this unpromising conjunction of opposites something unexpected happens: sometimes even better than perfection. From these two reticent characters besieged by two lifetimes of regret doubt & dismay Grenville manufactures an extraordinary comedy of manners made all more powerful by her own reticence as a writer Guardian Outrageously entertaining Daily Mail Mined throughout with little pockets of danger & depth Guardian A truly amazing writer Rosie Boycott chair of the Orange Prize jury ...

The book begins over a million years ago with a discussion of how the earliest ideas might have originated.

This book is about how minor life events & the choices we make as well as those made by our ancestors fuse with our inherited genes to mould us into individuals. What makes you so different to your siblings? Why do you vote a certain way remain faithful for twenty years believe in God love salads be heterosexual get cancer or depression dislike sport or never put on weight? Using fascinating case studies of identical twins Tim Spector draws gems from his exhaustive research project that has spanned twenty years to show how even real-life clones with the same upbringing turn out in reality to be very different. Based on cutting-edge discoveries that are pushing the frontiers of our knowledge of genetics he show us that
- contrary to recent scientific teaching
- nothing is completely hard-wired or pre-ordained. Challenging enlightening & entertaining Tim Spector explains theories such as why the Dutch have become the tallest nation in the world why autism is more heritable than breast cancer & what could cause a fit & healthy man to have a heart attack within weeks of his overweight heavy drinking heavy smoking identical twin. Conceptually he argues we are not just skin & bones controlled by our genes but minds & bodies made from plastic. This plastic is dynamic
- slowly changing shape & evolving driven by many processes we still cannot comprehend. Many of the subtle differences between us appear now to be due to chance or fate but as science rapidly evolves & explains current mysteries we will be able to become more active participants in this human moulding process. Then we can really begin to understand why we are who we are & what makes each of us so unique & quintessentially human.
