About the Book

Overwhelmed helps people make sense out of the transitions they face in every day life. This book is based on years of research—studies of people moving, adults returning to school, people whose jobs were eliminated, retirment, non-events like not having a baby, not getting promoted. These studies resulted in the development of a generic framework for understanding any type of transition. Based on this research, Overwhelmed presents a step-by-step approach to turning overwhelming transitions into challenging experiences. By systemically sizing up transitions and one's resources for dealing with them, people can learn how to build on their strengths, cut their losses, and even grow in the process.

About the Author :
Nancy K. Schlossberg is the author of eight books. She is co-president of TransitionWorks, a consulting firm; Professor Emerita at the College of Education, University of Maryland, College Park; and served as president of the National Career Development Association. She has been honored for her work by the American Psychological Association and the American Counseling Association. A frequent guest on radio and TV, Dr. Schlossberg’s work was showcased on page one of USA Today, and quoted in The New York Times, St. Petersburg Times, The Wall Street Journal, and Cleveland’s The Plain Dealer. She and her book are the focus of a 90-minute PBS pledge special, “Retire Smart, Retire Happy.”

Review :
Nancy Schlossberg's warm, practical, and constructive approach will help anyone feeling overwhelmed (as all of us occasionally are) by events we hoped for, by disasters we hoped to avoid, or by "sleeper" changes we didn't anticipate. Nancy Schlossberg's Overwhelmed: Coping with Life's Ups and Downs is a combination self-help book and personal improvement tool-kit. Professor Schlossberg tells great stories—stories that teach and guide us to move from "overwhelmed" to "in control" as we face life's vicissitudes. What more could one ask for?
