A study of the way work defines a woman's life, which exposes the hidden trade-offs, lost values and outdated premises that keep the workplace from working for women. The conclusions offer ways for women to identify their values, reclaim their identities, and define success on their own terms.

Review
"McKenna's book will likely become influential ...Frequently quoting from her talks with Gloria Steinem, Anna Quindlen and Letty Cottin Pogrebin, McKenna ...joins their prominence as a voice worth listening to."
--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
