Another spin on modern parenting from Dr. Sylvia Ann Hewlett, author of the controversial WAR AGAINST PARENTS. Hewlett studied a group of high-achieving professional women ages 40-55, all without children. Outlining the incredible personal commitment and sacrifice necessary to climb the corporate ladder, Hewlett concludes that many professionally ambitious women find themselves--by the time they have a good job, have found a spouse, and decided to have children--too old to conceive without medical assistance. The book concludes with several suggestions from the author for improvements in the workplace.
