See Jane Win: The Rimm Report on How 1,000 Girls Became Successful Women

Dr. Sylvia Rimm undertook a study of over a thousand successful women to find out how they became the high achievers they are today. Based on the results of this survey, she has developed commonsense, practical ways to raise girls to succeed. Dr. Rimm focuses her attention on girls and the issues they face growing up, including middle-school grade decline, eating disorders, math anxiety (remember the talking Barbie doll who declared "Math is hard!"?), self-esteem and competition, balancing career and family, and the glass ceiling. She outlines several categories of career, from traditionally female careers like nursing and teaching to more male-dominated fields like science, business and politics, and shows the trajectories women's careers follow in these fields and how to prepare for them. With the help of Dr. Sylvia Rimm and her subjects, you can free your daughter to choose from the full range of possibilities, and teach her to thrive and succeed in whatever field she chooses.
