Until the early twentieth century, attempts to transfuse blood from one person to another person were usually unsuccessful. Then, in 1901, Karl Landsteiner, an Austrian scientist, discovered that blood was divided into four types. These four blood types were named A, B, AB, and O. Blood type O is the most common around the world. Blood type A is the second most common, and type AB is the least common. If people with type A blood are given type B blood or people with type B blood are given type A blood, they will probably die.

 In 1927, a Japanese doctor, Furukawa Takeji carried out research and came up with the idea that people with different blood types had different personalities. Type A people are said to be calm and serious; people with type B blood are curious, cheerful, and outgoing; people with type O blood are generous and honest; while those with type AB blood are caring, original, and careful. 

In recent years, interest in blood types has grown in the United States, and one book, Eat Right for Your Type, has been a hit with people who want to lose weight
