Not for Parents Only

Although I am a non-parent, most of the people I work with and manage areparents. I read this book to increase my awareness of their daily toils and tribulations. In this respect, the book admirably served its purpose. However, I found much of the information in this book applicable not to parents only but to anyone who goes to work every day. This book offers advice on how to define success in one's own terms as well as down-to-earth information on such topics as day care. The organization of the book, in 75 "tips", each of which consists of a quotation, exercises for self-assessment and recommended resources and activities, makes the information readily accessible. I'm going to keep this book of abundant advice at my fingertips, using it to put some strategic planning into my own daily routine as well as using it as a guide to advise my colleagues. I am happily recommending it.
