Synopsis
Book by Shilling, Dana
Reviews
Shilling, author of cookbooks and legal manuals, here covers the world of money: career planning, insurance, paying for college, pensions, starting a business, day care, credit, stocks, and bonds. With 65 chapters, nothing is covered in much depth, except one area not often seen in financial planning booksdivorce. Now and then, Shilling provides a chapter showing a person or couple in a "real situation," and she includes the 1986 tax changes. The New York Times ( LJ 2/15/85), Price Waterhouse ( LJ 12/87), or Barron's ( LJ 7/87) works on financial planning may be less wide-ranging but preferable as to depth. Still, as an overview, this work is readable and pithy. Alex Wenner, Indiana Univ. Libs., Bloomington
