by Marjorie Hansen Shaevitz

A psychologist, Shaevitz offers tempering advice for do-it-all women who think that their lives are failures unless they are a combination of Mother Teresa, Bo Derek, Eudora Welty, Diana Ross and Sandra Day O'Connor. Her introduction—"Who Am I To Be Telling You What To Do?"—indicates she has things in perspective. (Warner, $17.50)
