''No Two Alike'' expands on some of the ideas from her previous book ''The Nurture Assumption'', especially the effect of birth order on personality and criticism of developmental psychology. She also attempts to answer some of the criticisms leveled at ''The Nurture Assumption''.
Harris proposes that three distinct mental systems shape personality: *A relationship system that allows us to distinguish family from strangers and tell individuals apart. *A socialization system that helps us to become members of a group and absorb the group's culture. *A status system that enables us to acquire self-knowledge by measuring ourselves against others.
The book was translated into Hebrew in 2006.<ref>{{cite book |last1=ריץ' האריס |first1=ג'ודית |script-title=he:אין שניים דומים. |date=2006 |publisher=עם עובד |location=תל אביב |isbn=9789651320217}}</ref>
