Why are some identical, others not? What are the chances of having twins? Triplets? Quadruplets? What special problems arise in their upbringing? The subject of twins and other multiple births (the 'supertwins' of the title) has long been one of particular interest to Dr. Sheinfeld. [. . .] The result is the first comprehensive account of the lives and characteristics of the multiple-born, from conception to maturity, which embodies not only clear scientific information but also personal views and experiences revealed by parents of twins and by twins themselves. It is a book that deserves to be widely known." #00805.
