Drawing on detailed interviews with women in their forties and fifties, Terri Apter has discovered that many women in midlife today possess a powerful sense of their own individuality. Their sense of where they are headed and what they have accomplished is achieved through a crisis in which they reassess past ideals and goals. In Secret Paths Apter takes us through women's change and growth, giving us the full and, until now, untold story of women's midlife path.
Succint and accurate based on real life experience

This book gives a great overview of how women who have chosen different life paths approach and deal with midlife. I found it a very accurate reflection of my own experience and that of friends with different life experiences to date. Instead of treating midlife as a "crisis", this book helps you redefine it as the opportunity it presents.
