About This Book
My Mother/My Self examines the first, most lasting--and most crucial--time of every woman's life, and shows how, in all the passages of a woman's life--with men, with other women, on the job, and with her own daughters--every woman can begin to change the childhood patterns of the mother/daughter bond, and become the vital, independent, fully sexual woman she wants to be.
