Women are extraordinarily hard on themselves. They scrutinize their flaws; they get preoccupied with ways they do not measure up, twisting themselves into knots to fix problems no one else can see. The Power of Women: Harness Your Unique Strengths at Home, at Work, and in Your Community, the latest book from award-winning and bestselling psychologist Dr. Susan Nolen-Hoeksema, shows women how to break this cycle—by discovering and utilizing their unique psychological strengths. Dr. Nolen-Hoeksema, the author of the bestselling Women Who Think Too Much and Eating, Drinking, Overthinking is a professor of psychology at Yale University where she has conducted award-winning research on women’s mental health for twenty-five years. She and her research have been profiled on the Today show and in The New York Times.
