Summary: A must-read book for women - and men - about Y2K.
Review: A rational, reasonable voice between the extremes of panic and ostrich-in-the-sand oblivion. Karen Anderson tells you what you should do to prepare, how and when to begin, and why it's a good idea. What I like best about Karen's advice is that it makes sense to do most of the preparation she recommends... even if Y2K turns out to just be a minor inconvenience for most people.

Summary: Great information for preparing your home
Review: Karen Anderson is probably the best-informed source for preparing for possible Y2K disruptions at home. While some are now saying that Y2K will be no big deal, the fact is, no one really knows what will happen. Many Y2K-knowledgeable people are saying we all need to be prepared in case normal life, with electricity and water on demand, etc., is disrupted for a time. Even Y2K expert Peter de Jager, who now says "we have broken the back of Y2K," still recommends preparing for one month of disruptions, just in case. Anderson's book will tell you everything you need to know about getting ready at home. She even recommends gathering a little extra, to share with those who may be unable to prepare ahead of time, in the spirit of community preparedness. I recommend this book highly.

Summary: My husband even said it was good!
Review: Thank you, thank you for a "woman's perspective on Y2K. It was such an encouragement to learn that there are lots of other women who are frustrated by their husband's cavalier attitude at what could be a significant problem. Fortunately, my husband has started reading it and says that "maybe she has a point . . ." He really is taking it serious now since "60 Minutes" said it could be bad. The recent segment they ran solidified what Karen and other Y2K writers have been saying about this impending crisis.Thank you for a well-written and helpful resource.

Summary: Practical, down-to-earth, easy to read. Great book! :-)
Review: Whether or not the Y2K Millenium Bug turns out to be a frightening fact or fabulous fizzle, emergency preparedness is a topic that everyone should investigate -- especially families with children at home. You never know when sudden financial down turns could make food purchasing difficult, or a severe winter storm could keep your family confined to home for an extended period of time, or even an earthquake could cause the need for emergency essentials on hand. While I'm not sure what I personally feel about the outcome of the Y2K computer problem, I do see the common sense idea of family preparedness to be a good approach for anyone to seriously consider. Having a well-stocked rotating pantry that's replenished from items purchased in bulk and on sale is also a great way to save money on your family's regular expenses (Y2K or not!). I appreciated the author's detailed list of suggestions for items to store ahead (whether you're planning a storage system to last for one week, six months, or a full year+).

Summary: A very powerful tool in the battle to overcome Y2K DENIAL!
Review: Y2K for Women is a very powerful tool in the battle to overcome Y2K Denial! Potential major disruption of the nest is especially hard on the mind and emotions of our ladies. However, without fail, every husband that I have given a copy of Y2K for Women to, for his wife to read, has profusely thanked me because his lifemate gets on "The Home Team" in Y2K readiness preparations. Karen Anderson has done us all a great service by gently and intelligently speaking to the ladies in our life. Y2K for Women is an excellent book, and I recommend it strongly to every husband who is desperately trying to get his mate involved in his quest to protect and provide for their family.
