The Secret Power of Middle Children: How Middleborns Can Harness Their Unexpected and Remarkable Abilities

The Secret Power of Middle Children takes a fresh look at birth order and challenges the familiar idea that middle children are destined to be overlooked or disadvantaged.

Psychologist Catherine Salmon, Ph.D., and journalist Katrin Schumann draw on research from psychology, sociology, and evolutionary biology, along with real-life stories, to explore how growing up “in the middle” may shape personality, relationships, independence, creativity, and teamwork.

The authors argue that experiences often associated with middle children—such as receiving less attention or learning to negotiate between siblings—can sometimes develop into valuable strengths later in life. The book also offers practical advice for middleborn adults and parents looking to better understand the advantages and challenges connected with birth order.
