From birth to adulthood, Blueprint tells you what you need to know about how you became who you are
Have you ever wondered how your early life shaped you? From beginning to say simple words like 'mama' and learning how to walk around unaided, to the first day of school and forming new friendships, everyone has been a child. The roots of our adult selves go right back to our first experiences. How we think, act and interact is influenced by our early years, yet most people don't know the key findings from the juiciest child development studies that can give us insight into our adult selves.
Weaving together cutting edge research, everyday experience and clinical examples, Dr Lucy Maddox explains how we develop from an unconscious bundle of cells floating about in the dark of the in uterine environment to to a fully grown complex adult, revealing fascinating insights about our personality, relationships and daily lives along the way.©2018 Lucy Maddox (P)2019 W.

Unlike many audiobooks, this one is very well narrated by the author. Her intricate knowledge of the subject means that she emphasizes parts she finds more important. Her style of narration is compassionate and easy to listen.
The book is well-structured, backed by science and without irrelevant information.
I discovered quite a few things while listening to this audiobook. It is a nice feeling when you are acquiring new information and suddenly a thought pops up in your head: I see, that's why... I had a couple of such Eureka moments while listening to The Blueprint.
