by Two: Lives of Extraordinary Twins. Nancy L. Segal, $18.95
A leading expert on twins delves into
the stories behind her research to reveal the profound joys and

One and
the Same: My Life as an Identical Twin and What I’ve Learned About Everyone’s
Struggle to Be Singular. Abigail Pogrebin, $33.00
In One and the Same, journalist
Abigail Pogrebin presents a tapestry of twinship, weaving science
reporting and personal memoir with the revelatory stories of
other twins — such
as two sisters who stopped speaking for three years; football
stars Tiki and Ronde Barber, who admit their twinship comes before
their marriages; a pair of bawdy, self-proclaimed “twin
ambassadors” who have created a media empire around their
twinness; and brothers whose shared genetic anomaly wrought unspeakable
tragedy. In this stirring account, Pogrebin shows how living
identical is both a celebration of sameness and a struggle for
singularity that defines us all. |
