Twenty-eight women; ranging from Anita Roddick and Prue Leith to less well-known names; write their own personal stories which are accompanied by Elizabeth Handys black and white photographs and an introductory essay by Charles Handy. This generation of women is entering the sixties more healthy; more educated and more energetic than most of their mothers. The subjects in this book provide the models for what has become; for the first time; a new age for many women. Released from most of the cares and responsibilities that accompany midlife for women; they are free to reinvent themselves; to give more time to their career or calling; or to luxuriate in the serenity and friendships that few had time for in the past. Some enter new relationships; some start new careers or go back to study; some find that their work is only now reaching its peak. Many have survived traumas and tragedies; but the past is just the prologue as one of them explains.

Review
3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Review of Theory and Technique of Ballroom DancingBy SSI found the book informative on the most of the basic steps in ballroom dancing. but it is quite thin and a bit old. There are no illustrations and it also lacks a section on the Viennese Waltz.
