American women are in a time crisis. They are doing more but enjoying it less. Fueled by both internaland external pressures, they run from task to task without pausing to ask themselves, Do I really want to do all this stuff? Why cant I get a handle on managing my time?

Determined to bring workable solutions to women, she commissioned a national survey of women.

One in three women (34 percent) described themselves as overwhelmed. This book delivers proven, effective strategies for time management.
