She writes with a friendly, simple elegance designed to take the intimidation out of personal financial management in hopes of enabling young women to take control of their finances, invest and achieve their goals. getAbstract appreciates the open-minded enthusiasm that Summers brings to her task and recommends her guidebook to anyone who is ready to control her (or even his) own financial destiny.
