Bosworth goes behind the image of an American superwoman, revealing Fondaâ€"more powerful and vulnerable than ever expectedâ€"whose struggles for high achievement, love, and successful motherhood mirror the conflicts of a generation of women. As actress, activist, businesswoman, wife, and mother, Jane Fonda has pushed herself to the limit, attempting to please all, excel in every! arena, be everything. We’ve read her version of her controversial life, yet nothing can prepare us for this genuinely revelatory account of Jane’s engrossing, sometimes shocking journey. Supplemented by the psychiatric records of her suicidal, bipolar mother, Fonda’s FBI file, and interviews with her intimates, this perceptive portrait strips away hype and the subject’s own mythmaking. Patricia Bosworth shows us what a toll Jane’s quest to excel (and please her demanding father, Henry) exacted and sheds light on truths she’s glossed over: her rejection of her mother before her suicide; the death threats and self-doubts of her antiwar crusade; her second husband Tom Hayden’s habit of putting her down while spending her fortune; the emotional downfall that led her to stop acting and marry Ted Turner. Lee Strasberg once said that Jane had "panic in her eyes," and it is this wounded but so familiar womanâ€"human yet still heroic, the embodimen! t of a generation’s conflicts and triumphsâ€"whom Bosworth c! aptures so utterly and definitively.“In the process of writing this book I discovered there were clear, broad, even universal themes that ran through my life, a coherent arc to my journey that, if I could be truthful in the telling, might provide a road map for other women as they face the challenges of relationships, self-image, and forgiveness. What I did not anticipate was how my journey would also resonate with men.â€

Staying active has been my key to aging successfully. Regular exercise not only burns calories, it also dramatically improves both body and brain functions. My
Fit & Strong DVD includes two 25-minute workouts that will burn fat, tone and shape every major muscle group and strengthen your core. Make a habit of doing these workouts and you’ll look and feel your best.As Jane Fonda strides into her 70s, she is still focused on and committed to fitness. Her
Fit & Strong workout is geared to older exercisers, or those who simply are starting out. There are two 25-minute workouts on this DVD, a Level 1 and a Level 2. Both can be done seated and standing, with light weights (which can be increased for a more challenging workout). These workouts get at nearly every muscle group, gently but thoroughly. There are also excellent s! tretches included and great tips on daily activities, posture,! and the like. What is most endearing and touching about
Fit & Strong is not necessarily the workouts--we expect Fonda to deliver and she does. But it's Fonda's supportive tone and discussions at the beginning of the workouts and throughout the movements that set
Fit & Strong apart. Fonda is understanding about the disconnected feeling many people, especially older people, have about their bodies, and how feeling reconnected stimulates not just the body, but the mind and the soul. Fonda says it's OK to be wherever you are in your fitness level--and she takes it from there. It's as supportive an environment as any exerciser could possibly want, and it makes the routines go more quickly. Fonda has become the exerciser's true friend, and in
Fit & Strong that becomes one of the best reasons to keep coming back to do the routines. Anyone of any fitness level can start
Fit & Strong immediately and feel results--and that's a great gift, at any age. --
