The Nurture Assumption by Judith Rich Harris challenges the traditional belief that parenting shapes a child's personality, arguing instead that peers and external social environments play a far more significant role.
Using compelling psychological research, Harris examines the interplay between genetics, peer influence, and culture, presenting a provocative and evidence-based perspective that reshapes our understanding of child development.
