5.0 out of 5 stars "A real world, common sense, self-care and survival book!", July 22, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Smart Cookies Don't Crumble (Paperback)

"Not at all like the typical 70's and 80's 'Dress for Success", or assertiveness training guides for women." This book won't teach you how to mime he good ole' boy network, or how to wear a power suit...
A real world, common sense survivial book, which teaches how to internalize the 'care-giver' in us. It is a wise, thought provoking, logical approach to self preservation, self empowerment and one of the original (and best,) self improvement books for women. An absolutely great gift for your daughters, as they reach womanhood, enter the workforce or marriage!"
I am very disapointed that the book is currently unavailable from the publisher. I've looked everywhere for it. It is a must have in every women's library... (Please reorder.

This book gave me the courage to leave a marriage of domestic abuse in the 70's. I hope it will be availble on Kindle soon because daughters and grandaughters should read this.
