Title: Hoax?
Review: My first reaction to "Born to Rebel" was that it most likelywas some very elaborate hoax. It's not that the book'sconclusions are preposterous. It's the patently puerileapproach the author takes. Everything that agrees with thethesis is appropriate data. Anything that doesn't isexplained away with a suitable arm wave.History can indeed be treated scientifically but this isn'tit.And describing the way in which birth order affects one'spersonality as an example of Darwinian theory has got to bea joke.Darwin hasn't enough trouble...This too!
