| From
The Critics |
"Empowering,
practical, brutally honest, simplistically real and totally usable
describe Coburn's handbook. The stories shared by the women add
graphic emphasis to situations. Some are ironically humorous, many
are angry, some are sadly resigned and all are believable."
— N.O.W. Times
