The Nurture Assumption
Book •
In 'The Nurture Assumption', Judith Rich Harris challenges the conventional wisdom that parents are the primary influence on child development.

The book offers a compelling argument that reevaluates the traditional understanding of parental influence and highlights the importance of peer relationships in child development.
