Publisher's Synopsis

This title provides an exploration of fatherhood from the frontiers of psychology, genetics, and neuroscience. Whether they are portrayed as incompetent or simply inconsequential, fathers have long been overlooked. Weaving in fascinating findings from genetics, brain research, animal behaviour, and his own experience of parenthood, Raeburn delivers a rich and eye-opening look at the impact fathers can have on their children.
