A Male Perspective

"Sanity Savers" offers excellent insight into every-day solutions for women and not incidentally - men! The more balanced my wife's life is directly coorelates to the easiness of our existence and how smoothly we operate as a team. Focusing on balance is a notion that is articulated in so many ways by the author that even I picked up on it! Reading this book has made me more aware of how I can be a pro-active part of the solution towards balance all the time . . . It's like an "insiders guide" towards making decisions with the end-game being an equally weighted life.
