About this listen

 Firstborn? Only child? Middle child? Baby of the family? Find out what it means to you, your relationships, and your career. Do you realize that of the first 23 astronauts in space, 21 were firstborns and the other two were the only child in their family? Are you aware that many successful entrepreneurs are middle children? Is it any surprise that most comedians are the youngest child in their family?

It's all about birth order. Birth order powerfully influences who you are, whom you marry, the job you choose, and the kind of parent you are. And Dr. Kevin Leman's The Birth Order Book will help you understand yourself, get along better with others, overcome ingrained tendencies you never thought you could get rid of, and be more successful in the workplace.

This revised and updated audio edition of Dr. Leman's classic book includes more than 30 years of experience and research, current examples, and fascinating stories to show how birth order impacts your life. Thousands of people have unlocked the secrets of birth order already. Shouldn't you be one of them?

I, a British first-born, needed to quell a whole bunch of sceptical inner voices in order to hear the whole story, here.
It paid of in spades.
I know this is popular psychology, and that there is a crying need for further quantitative research, but the care invested by Dr Leman to caveat his anecdotal style and narrative themes give the assurance of reliable, actionable advice that actually works.

I really enjoyed this book and it has put a lot of things into perspective. I think this book will help parents, couples, leaders and pretty much everyone. Be open minded, this book does not have all the answers but certainly answered plenty of my questions...

I love Leman’s humour and his teaching style in general. So this book was not only informative but filled with his last born wit.
Taught me not only about myself, but how to be a better mother and sibling.

Brutally honest
