Wolf spiders chasing clowns in the heather, rats running in the maze, townboys gaming at the museum, Americans invading Nant Saras. It was like living in an early Spielberg movie one of the classics, Harry Potter and the Temple of Doom or the Mattress perhaps? Not that any of us ever saw ourselves as a hero. It''s a long time since we saw one of those films, even though they play endlessly on the net. Everything is on the net, all the facts and fictions. Like that rubbish about Napoleon, inventing corned beef, the trouble that got us into. What did we know? We were just kids from the academy.

The Relationship Code

The Relationship Code is the report of a longitudinal study, conducted over a ten-year period, of the influence of family relationships and genetic factors on competence and psychopathology in adolescent development. The sample for this landmark study included 720 pairs of same-sex adolescent siblings--including twins, half siblings, and genetically unrelated siblings--and their parents. Using a clear expressive style, David Reiss and his coinvestigators identify specific mechanisms that link genetic factors and the social environment in psychological development. They propose a striking hypothesis: family relationships are crucial to the expression of genetic influences on a broad array of complex behaviors in adolescents. Moreover, this role of family relationships may be very specific: some genetic factors are linked to mother-child relationships, others to father-child relations, some to relationship warmth, while others are linked to relationship conflict or control. The specificity of these links suggests that family relationships may constitute a code for translating genetic influences into the ontogeny of behaviors, a code every bit as important for behavior as DNA-RNA.
