Blueprint
The blueprint for our individuality lies in the 1% of DNA that differs between people. Our intellectual capacity, our introversion or extraversion, our vulnerability to mental illness, even whether we are a morning person - all of these aspects of our personality are profoundly shaped by our inherited DNA differences. In Blueprint, Robert Plomin, a pioneer in the field of behavioural genetics, draws on a lifetime's worth of research to make the case that DNA is the most important factor shaping who we are. Our families, schools and the environment around us are important, but they are not as influential as our genes. This is why, he argues, teachers and parents should accept children for who they are, rather than trying to mould them in certain directions. Even the environments we choose and the signal events that impact our lives, from divorce to addiction, are influenced by our genetic predispositions. Now, thanks to the DNA revolution, it is becoming possible to predict who we will become, at birth, from our DNA alone. As Plomin shows us, these developments have sweeping implications for how we think about parenting, education, and social mobility. A game-changing book by a leader in the field, Blueprint shows how the DNA present in the single cell with which we all begin our lives can impact our behaviour as adults.

FOREWORD BY PEP GUARDIOLAThe year is 2012. Manchester City have just failed to sign Pep Guardiola, the most sought-after manager in world football. All City can do is watch as he joins Bayern Munich and wins consecutive league titles.The year is 2016. Guardiola is finally courted by City. But his first season at the Etihad will also be his first ever without a trophy. He will be mockingly nicknamed 'Fraudiola', and after drawing the first home game of the new 2017-18 season, he will lock himself in the dressing room, inconsolable.The year is 2018. Manchester City followed that fateful draw with eighteen wins in a row. They will win the Premier League with a record, rampant 100 points - a now legendary 'Centurion' season.The year is 2023. Manchester City have just sealed an historic Treble by winning the Champions League in Istanbul. Pep and Kevin De Bruyne celebrate together on the pitch. The world's most ambitious sporting project has come full circle. History has been made.Throughout this project, Simon Bajkowski, has been alongside the team in his role as the Manchester Evening News's chief Manchester City correspondent. He has compiled the definitive book on the team, complete with unrivalled insight and new interviews.This book is a study in high-performance sporting excellence and elite management. But more than that, it is a true insider's guide: to how Manchester City won an unprecedented and historic Treble in 2023, and how a near-perfect footballing machine was built from the ground up. Prepare for The Blueprint: a white-knuckle ride through a sporting dynasty the likes of which the game has never seen before.
