Is balancing work or school (or both) with home and family stressing you out? Do you feel like you never get anywhere on your to do list? Would you be more successful if you managed your time more effectively? Montgomery pulls no punches with the urgency of the problem of poorly-managed time: stress can actually kill us. But stress is really an issue of our thought life, rather than a physical condition or illness. Focus gets us into the action steps immediately by having us first identify our priorities.We can't do everything we're asked to do - we have to say "no" to some things. We need to determine ahead of time what the most important matters are, and what is not important to us personally. Montgomery recommends meditation as a method of training our minds to stay in the present time and place.

An in-depth view of the way popular female stereotypes were reflected in—and were shaped by—the portrayal of women in Disney’s animated features. In Good Girls and Wicked Witches, Amy M. Davis re-examines the notion that Disney heroines are rewarded for passivity. Davis proceeds from the assumption that, in their representations of femininity, Disney films both reflected and helped shape the attitudes of the wider society, both at the time of their first release and subsequently. Analyzing the construction of (mainly human) female characters in the animated films of the Walt Disney Studio between 1937 and 2001, she attempts to establish the extent to which these characterizations were shaped by wider popular stereotypes. Davis argues that it is within the most constructed of all moving images of the female form—the heroine of the animated film—that the most telling aspects of Woman as the subject of Hollywood iconography and cultural ideas of American womanhood are to be found. “A fascinating compilation of essays in which [Davis] examined the way Disney has treated female characters throughout its history.” —PopMatters
