I thought it was an autobiography about her struggle in the world of journalism, but it turned out to be a self help book rather than a story about her. Definitely a book to have when "your life throws you a curve".

Back on Track tells how to handle the unexpected troubles that life can throw at you. Deborah Norville shares her experiences with the listener, from being on top as television's new "Golden Girl" to being unfairly vilified by nearly everyone in the media. Ms. Norville sheds light on what really happened on the Today Show with dignity and class and avoids giving others the nasty, hurtful treatment that was given to her.

Because this is an abridged copy of Back on Track, it lacks some of the details that are included in the hardcover. What it lacks in detail, it makes up for in its presentation. What I like about this (and other audio books) is that it is read by the author. Having the "book" read by a "celebrity" gives the personal touch, that just adds to the enjoyment for the listener. You'll love this audio book from this wonderful, intelligent and inspirational woman.

I am a big fan of Deborah Norville, and this book gives alot of appreciation for what she has accomplished and endured. This book should not be missed. It is a wonderful book, that is very well written, and makes you laugh and cry. We all need to recognize anything can happen anytime. And how there are times, life just deals you a hand you have no control over. You have to claw your way back out. I have been there. Thank you Deborah for sharing this part of your life so those, like myself, can benefit and learn from your experience.

Fan of Deborah Norville; enjoyed this book, even if I didn't agree with all of her advice.
