This new book looks at an important issue--the emotional impact of
success upon women--at a time when opportunities are more available
to them than ever before. Using research, clinical experience, and
personal anecdotes, the contributors examine the timely issues of
women and worry, women's sense of their own entitlement, fear of
success and fear of failure, and women's impostor feelings. The
dilemma that feminist therapists frequently experience of
encouraging women clients, often superbly qualified in their
fields, to take a risk that might involve rejection or failure, is
highlighted here. Therapists will recognize the often expressed
fears of academic and intellectual failure, as well as the fears of
various interpersonal failures that result from a combination of
women's opportunities in society as well as socialization.
