My good friend Carla Andrews-O'Hara recently published a book A Woman's Guide to College: Navigating the Terrain to a Better Life. There's probably no better person to write such a book, as Carla herself was a returning adult learner, earned a number of degrees and is now marketing pro and author. The book is grounded in sound philosophies regarding adults returning to college or going to college later in life. The twist is its special focus to women. However, many of her principles and tips can be helpful to both men and women, but Carla takes an interesting historical look at women in higher education and the challenges one faces. She takes her principles and topics and overlays interviews and research to help make the book even more applied and useful, but also more interesting as she get into the lives and experiences of others. Great job Carla. If you are interested, the book can be found at Amazon.com at http://www.amazon.com/Womans-Guide-College-Navigating-Terrain/dp/1439262411/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1266861348&sr=8-1.
