* Shows how the latest brain science can help our children flourish and thrive by supporting who they really are, not what social trends parenting tells us to demand from them. * Supports moms and dads who know instinctively that all children are different, unique and have special potentials. None is a blank slate. Each has its own hard wiring, temperament, character, personality, weaknesses and strengths, based on brain structure, neurological development, gender, and genetic predisposition. This ground breaking book shows us how to know our children, and appreciate their differences. * Provides the tools to understand their core nature and nourish it depending on their one-of-a-kind genetic predisposition, biological hard-wiring,  and stage of development. * Documents how the Gurian Institute has applied their research in dozens of large school districts across the country and with parents everywhere. They have thirty trainers criss-crossing the country and in countries abroad.
