: profoundly illuminating work grounded in everyday life. This is the story :
: of how success happens, told through the lives of one composite American :
: couple, Harold and Erica. Drawing on a wealth of current research from :
: numerous disciplines, Brooks takes Harold and Erica from infancy to old :
: age, illustrating a fundamental new understanding of human nature along the:
