There are thousands of books on the shelf that tell us how to deal with our problems. This book does not pontificate. It is a celebration of being a woman and being good at it. About time!

Happiness, financial security, peace of mind, love, power, success, good health, respect and aging gracefully--these nine desires stand at the top of most women's wish lists. Yet too often, for any number of reasons--from low self-esteem to an inability to manage one's life--the bridge between the dream and reality is not crossed. This book can change all that. To enable women to target their desires and pursue their objectives, this informative volume draws on the inspiring stories of celebrities who have battled the odds and achieved their goals. The celebrities used in this book were selected carefully. While each is the master of her own fate, the stories behind these successful women illustrate that there is nothing magical about their achievements. Hard work and determination are the key. This book shows that it is possible for any woman to attain her highest goal. With a preface by New York-based Dr. Jane Greer, a nationally known psychotherapist, this new and exciting book provides a fresh perspective on the desires of today's modern woman, as well as a practical strategy to make her healthy, wealthy and wise

This book has helped me tremendously. I highly recomend it to anyone who feels like they want to take charge of their life and make themselves happy. You will be enlightened with every page you read! Best of luck to you all.

"How could you do this to me?" helped me put my thoughts in order. I had pretty much figured out what had happened in my life - why the betrayal took place, why it happened to me and where I needed to go from there. The problem was that it was all so jumbled in my head and I was so emotionally charged that nothing seemed to make sense. I have been able to search my soul, am putting my thoughts together in an orderly fashion in order to move on with my life now.

Dr. Greer has tackled the age-old question with simple professionalism. Readers aren't distracted by flower language or psychobabble, but rather intrigued by straight-forward content that encapsulates the pain of betrayal through the stories of others. Using these stories as reference points, Dr. Greer offers her solemn advice to confronting and overcoming betrayal and even provides step-by-step behavioral analyses for readers who seek more definition. Though one might not fully agree with how Dr. Greer characterizes betrayers, it is doubtful one could walk away from the book not learning anything about themselves and those around them. This book will teach you basic communication elements and give you much needed confidence when confronting your own betrayers. You'll also be encouraged to analyze your own behavior through aggressive introspection -- you aren't merely learning to "battle" betrayers, you're learning about yourself. The key is to be open and honest while reading. Be passionate and sensitive and eventually you'll be stronger and more confident, better able to face those who hurt you ... including yourself.

I bought this book for myself and a loved one who had both been betrayed by someone we thought we could trust to the ends of the earth. It did not involve marital infidelity, but was equally crushing. One of the great problems in a situation like this is trying to find language to express the existential pain that one feels. The wrenching emotions are there, but in order to deal with them, they must first be identified, articulated and defined . This is much harder than it seems. I found the best part of this book to be the way it helped me to get my arms around the feelings, and thus help come to terms with it. The book helped clear a path to understanding, dispelling an undefinable pain, and resolving it into something rationally comprehensible.
