Book Description
Journalist Abigail Pogrebin is many things—wife, mother, New Yorker—but the one that has defined her most profoundly is “identical twin.” As children, she and her sister, Robin, were inseparable. But when Robin began to pull away as an adult, Abigail was left to wonder not only why, but also about the very nature of twinship. What does it mean to have a mirror image? How can you be unique when somebody shares your DNA? In One and the Same, Abigail sets off on a quest to understand how genetics shape us, crisscrossing the country to explore the varied relationships between twins, which range from passionate to bitterly resentful. She speaks to the experts and tries to answer the question parents ask most—is it better to encourage their separateness or closeness? And she paints a riveting portrait of twin life, yielding fascinating truths about how we become who we are.

One and the Same
Author: Danielle Johns
Publisher: Fulton Books, Inc.
ISBN: 1649524161
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 32
Book Description
I came up with the title One and the Same from the different experiences I have had with men and how every relationship had fewer differences and more similarities, whether it is good or bad, positive or negative. It represents my determination to express how in any relationship, the negativity, positivity, and spirituality between man and woman isn’t as different as people may think it is. The title contradicts the claims of how both genders are so different rather than looking at the facts that they are not different except for physical appearances. However, the way both genders want to be loved, how they have been hurt, how they have been treated, etc. is all the same and should not be treated as one being greater or more important than the other. This will be able to open the eyes of man and woman to see how their relationships can go further than what they think it can if they would stop thinking differently and start feeling, seeing, hearing, and tasting the similarities that can help their relationships go far because they are one and the same.
