Review
The Money Mirror: How Money Reflects Women's Dreams, Fears, And Desires investigates the emotional and social origins of women's problems with money and delves into the reasons why many women who are otherwise successful and self-reliant fear money. The Money Mirror is a lively, anecdotal exploration of women's historical relationship to money, and both authors identify and discuss the seven symptoms of "Money Phobia" through the heartfelt, personal accounts of women (both famous and non-famous) who have struggled with this affliction. The Money Mirror assures women that they can overcome their fears to develop healthy, positive attitudes about money, and they offer a wealth of down-to-earth tips on how to develop money awareness on the road to leading healthier, happier financial lives. --
