Here is the first authoritative yet accessible reference that gives women information on a range of questions, such as employment, career, money, health, legal problems, family issues, and children. With practical advice about managing and resolving crises, resources available to women in crisis, outlines of relevant federal programs, and reading lists for further information, Solutions is an essential sourcebook for women of all ages and at all stages of life.
