Decade-defining box office smash starring Patrick Swayze in one of his most famous roles. Frances 'Baby' Houseman (Jennifer Grey) is a teenage girl on holiday with her family at a resort in the Catskill Mountains. Stumbling upon an off-limits employees-only party, she witnesses the staff getting down and dirty to the R 'n' B hits of the day. The hotel's dance instructor Johnny (Swayze) catches her eye in particular, and, despite their differences in class, age and experience, the couple begin to fall in love. Features the Oscar-winning song '(I've Had) the Time of My Life' as performed by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes.

At some point in our working lives we have all failed. Or will fail. Or think we have failed. But in our success-driven society, failure has been the last taboo. In this revolutionary book, Carole Hyatt and Linda Gottlieb break that final taboo to reveal an inspiring message: Not only are our defeats survivable, they can be tools for renewed success.
