I was amazed by Theodore Wachs' knowledge base and scholarship. He surveys a vast and complex landscape to explain just about everything we know about what makes people turn out the way they do.

To begin, one of the most striking elements of this book is the disregard of inappropriate parsimony in developmental psychology, an area of research that has traditionally involved an attempt to "boil down" the pertinent influences that affect human development. Wachs, on the other hand, serves his readers a delectable plate full of relevant research findings that point to a much more sophisticated web of relations between a myriad of variables shown to be related to some component of human development.
