✦内容简介——
以图文并茂的方式在全球范围内探讨双胞胎的文化意义。
双胞胎的出生是不寻常的。纵观历史，他们被尊崇为神灵，也被蔑视为怪物；他们被当作音乐厅的双簧演员而备受喜爱，也被当作两面三刀的罪犯而备受恐惧；人类学家和科学家对他们进行了研究，并参与了自然与养育的辩论和基因实验。他们的存在是对常规的挑战；他们被单胎视为 "另类"，并受到同样程度的惊奇和不信任。双胞胎有特异功能吗？双胞胎是吉兆还是凶兆？他们有心灵感应吗？我们是否应该害怕幽灵般的二重身的出现？
从阿兹特克人创造的双胞胎奎查尔科特尔（Quetzalcoatl）和特兹卡特利波卡（Tezcatlipoca）到希腊神话中的对立神灵阿波罗和阿耳忒弥斯，从犯罪团伙头目克莱双胞胎到《闪灵》中令人不安的格雷迪双胞胎，这本视觉冲击力极强、常常令人不安的书探索和审视了从古至今各种文化和媒体中双胞胎的方方面面。本书围绕三大主题探讨了双胞胎的视觉呈现、对双胞胎的文化态度以及对双胞胎的科学利用：神话传说中的双胞胎及其故事所提供的启示；从高尔顿到基因工程对双胞胎的解剖学、社会学和科学研究；以及作为艺人、奇观和社区来源的双胞胎。九篇发人深省的文章对双胞胎的无数含义、反应和用途进行了深思熟虑的分析和引人入胜的探究，为主题图像橱窗增色不少。
The first illustrated global exploration of the cultural significance of twins.
The birth of twins is unusual. Throughout history they have been revered as gods and reviled as monsters; they have been adored as amusing music hall double acts and feared as duplicitous criminals; and they have been studied by anthropologists and scientists engaged in the nature vs nurture debate and genetic experiments. Their existence challenges the norm; they are seen by singletons as ‘other’ and regarded with an equal measure of wonder and distrust. Do twins have special powers? Does a twin birth present a good or bad omen? Are they telepathic? Should we fear the appearance of the ghostly doppelganger?
From the Aztec creation twins Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca to the divine opposites of Greek myth, Apollo and Artemis, and from criminal gang leaders the Kray twins to the disconcerting Grady twins in The Shining, this visually arresting and often disturbing book explores and interrogates twindom in all its facets in a wide range of cultures and media from ancient times to today. The visual presentation of twins, cultural attitudes to twins and scientific uses of twins are examined within three broad themes: twins of myth and legend and the instruction their stories provide; the anatomical, sociological and scientific studies of twins from Galton to genetic engineering; and twins as entertainers, sources of spectacle and community. Punctuating the cabinets of thematic imagery are nine thought-provoking essays that provide considered analysis and intriguing investigation of the myriad meanings, responses to and uses of twinkind.
