The following are excerpts from reviews of See
Jane WinTM:
Amazon.Com:
"Overall, this is a useful compendium of sound advice and enlightening case studies
that ultimately serves to underscore one vital point: Parents do make a difference. Sugar
and spice are certainly nice, but See Jane Win offers a more substantial recipe for the
raising of daughters." ------- Shawn Carkonen
Library Journal, June 15, 1999:
". . . her fascinating book offers conclusions that are insightful and frequently
surprising. Numerous case studies relate both the pleasures and the pain of success. .

You Go, Girl (With a Lot of Support)
Los Angeles Times, May 24, 1999:
". . . Parents can learn how to counter the negative forces and give their girls a
platform to succeed, according to "See Jane Win," a new book by Sylvia Rimm, a
correspondent for NBC's "Today" show.
Joined by her two daughters, both accomplished women, Rimm conducted a survey of 1,236
women nationwide considered to have successful and satisfying professional careers. She
also conducted in-depth interviews with several high-achieving women whose stories are
quite compelling. The book is a fascinating look at why people become who they are.
Parents will take away many practical tips and good advice on how to encourage their
daughters to aim high."------- Shari Roan,
Kirkus Reviews
"A paint-by-the-numbers plan for raising daughters that calls for being challenging
but not too challenging, supportive but not too supportive, and promoting a work ethic.
