Excellence in Caring: An Assisted Living Guide to Community Development and Hope

There is an Alternative is a book written for women everywhere. It dips in and out of the author's personal experiences, then intersperses these vignettes with enthusiastic encouragement to show them that they CAN change their circumstances if they really want to, just like she did. It is a short book that sticks to the point of the exercise and leads the reader to the conclusion that it IS possible to become who they really want to be. It shows how to change their life for the better; how to be assertive without being aggressive, indeed, how to deal with aggression from other people—and how to find one's true potential without feeling guilty. It doesn't promise it will be easy but it does explain how liberated, satisfied and just simply wonderful it will feel once empowerment is achieved. This book is designed to help women to realize that there really IS an alternative if they are in any way undermined, under intolerable pressure or simply wish to fulfill their rightful destiny. Everyone has a right to be who they really are is the message, stated with fervor.
