New Passages
Author: Gail Sheehy
A provocative sequel to and a significant extension of Sheehy's international bestseller Passages. Sheehy finds a revolution in the adult life cycle as she traces not only radical changes in the earlier phases of the '20s, '30s, and '40s, but discovers and maps out the new frontier--a second adulthood in middle life.

The author's original Passages was a ground-breaking book about the stages of adulthood, engagingly written. This newer updated version is terrific as well - easy to read and very insightful, no matter what stage of womanhood you are in.

I read this book because I was privileged to hear the author speak about the time it came out. She has a very special gift for analyzing the past and seeing our futures. In today's work world where we hear about generational conflict, Ms Sheehy was talking about those unique generational features a decade ago. Her message is timely and timeless. I enjoyed it then, refer to it often, and believe you would enjoy it also. There were many "aha" moments for me when I read "New Passages".

I found this book insightful and very helpful with many ideas and powerful concepts. Some paragraphs I had to read a few times to get the full picture but, once gotten, a few "ah-ha" moments for me as well.

Nice book and a great read.
