This myth-busting book shows how "forgotten" middle children
can-and do-rule the world. In this counterintuitive book, psychologist Catherine Salmon
and journalist Katrin Schumann combine science, history, and
real-life stories to reveal for the first time that our
perception of middle children is dead wrong. Using unpublished and little-known research from
evolutionary psychology, sociology, and communications, The
Secret Power of Middle Children illustrates how adaptive
strategies middleborns develop during childhood translate
into stronger friendships, lasting marriages, successful
careers, and effective parenting. Over seventy million adult Americans are middle children,
and forty percent of young American families have middle
children. With constructive advice on how to maximize the
benefits and avoid the pitfalls of being a middle child,
Salmon and Schumann help middle children at any age (and
their parents) use birth order as a strategy for success.
