4.0 out of 5 stars Only For Wonder Woman Fans..., July 13, 2007

The WHAT WOULD WONDER WOMAN DO?... book gets 4-stars only because it's a clever idea and the two authors did a nice job weaving job hunting info within a Wonder Woman story line.

There are fun juxtapositions of WW comic strips along with real-world scenearios, i.e. "The Job Interview" and "Co-Workers Friend or Foe," that give readers a sense of what WW would do, and because the reader too can be a WW, she can do the same.

But as fun and clever as it is, the book does fall short on in-depth info. Most of the advice is simple and common-sense and the chapters are very short. There's some pratical advice in it, but for the most part this WW book is better suited as a novelty/humor item for a WW fan.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good gag gift, May 29, 2009

This filled the bill perfectly for what I wanted: A gag gift for my girlfriend, who had been struggling with some situations at work. It's a fun book (not to be taken terribly seriously, although there are some good lessons in it).
