Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
New York City psychologist Friedman, seen daily on cable TV, is a columnist for the Detroit Free Press and author of Smart Cookies Don’t Crumble. With freelance writer Kettelhack, she addresses a reader assumed to be, like her patients, a woman bewildered by shifts in self-perception, offering advice for “increasing your own sense of personal power over your life.” Citing the “feminine mistake,” Friedman cautions against heeding the siren call to total liberation. With equal force she challenges advocates of the stereotype of the housebound wife and mother. Specific and practical steps in this guide encourage the reader to know herself and to discard others’ expectations and live her own life.
