It is one of the great mysteries of human nature. Why are some people worriers, and others wanderers? Why are some people so easy-going and laid-back, while others are always looking for a fight?Written by Daniel Nettle--author of the popular book Happiness--this brief volume takes the reader on an exhilarating tour of what modern science can tell us about human personality. Revealing that our personalities stem from our biological makeup, Nettle looks at the latest findings from genetics and brain science, and considers the evolutionary origins and consequences of different personalities. The heart of the book sheds light on the "big five": Extraversion, Neuroticism, Conscientious, Agreeableness, and Openness. Using a stimulating blend of true-life stories and scientific research, Nettle explains why we have something deep and consistent within us that determines the choices we make and situations we bring about. He addresses such questions as why members of the same family differ so markedly in their natures? What is the best personality to have--a bold one or a shy one, an aggressive one or a meek one? And are you stuck with your personality, or can you change it? Life, Nettle concludes, is partly the business of finding a niche where your personality works for you. "It is a question of choosing the right pond," he notes, "and being mindful of the dangers." There is no ideal personality to have. Every disposition brings both advantages and disadvantages.
Full of human wisdom as well as scientific insight, this book illuminates the pluses and minuses of personality, offering practical advice about living with the nature you were born with. It even includes a questionnaire so that you can assess yourself.

Works and feels Great
Sun protection factor: 70 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I just got back from The beautiful island of St Thomas USVI and used this product all throughout my vacation. I’m really picky about sunscreen formula and having dark combination skin, it’s pretty important that I find one I can work with. This was great! It was hydrating but didn’t feel too oily, the smell was subtle and not overwhelming, and I didn’t burn all week especially when I was on a different beach in different areas of the island it worked beautiful for me

Very good... with a comment.
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
As a bald dude, I fine the fact that it is matt good. Check it before you leave or, if you use to much, looks like white face upon drydown and in dry areas. I like it. I do. And it protected me from the hot sun of the middle east. No burn.
Just needs a second check after about 10 minutes. But very good at what it does!!!

Excellent product.
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Excellent product. The sun is extremely strong where I live, and I've been using this for several days now; it lasts a very long time on the skin. However, if you have very sensitive skin, I wouldn't recommend using it on your face—in my case, it caused a breakout. But for the neck, body, and arms, it’s excellent. I highly recommend it, and it doesn't leave a bad feel on the skin or an unpleasant smell. If you use it in the water, it is recommended to reapply every hour and 20 minutes, otherwise you might get sunburned.

Daily Staple Sunscreen
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been really impressed with this sunscreen—it’s become a daily staple for my face and hands. The SPF 70 gives great peace of mind, especially with regular sun exposure, and it feels lightweight rather than heavy or greasy.
It absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave that thick white cast, which is a huge plus for everyday wear. On my face, it layers well under makeup without pilling, and on my hands, it doesn’t feel sticky or transfer onto everything I touch.
I also appreciate that it holds up well throughout the day without needing constant reapplication (unless I’m outside a lot). Overall, it’s a reliable, high-protection sunscreen that’s comfortable enough to use every day.

Best sunscreen
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My favorite sunscreen. Been buying if for 2 years and still a great product. It goes on easily and does not make your skin greasy or sweaty. It does not cause breakouts either.
