The Secret Between Us: Competition Among Women

Description

"As women talked to me about competition, the interviews, more often than not, felt like cloak and-dagger sessions. Their voices dropped as they leaned toward me, speaking off the record. They seemed ashamed of acknowledging female competition, and inevitably, as they talked, they told stories, one after the other, about other women competing with them-stories filled with treachery, duplicity, malice, and flat-out craziness. No one mentioned her own competitiveness. According to the research material I collected, and in terms of my own feelings about women's competition before I began this book, only other women compete. "Clearly, something is wrong here." ISBN:9780316852203
