(more)for All Seasons;” “Women, Work & The Art of Savoir Faire: Business Sense & Sensibility;” and the new “French Women Don’t Get Fat Cookbook”

New York Times bestselling author of French Women Don't Get Fat has now written every woman’s guide to navigating the work world, to living the good life, and how to enjoy every minute of it. Using her distinctive French woman’s philosophy and style, Mireille Guiliano took Veuve Clicquot to ... (more)the top of the luxury market. In her newest book she draws on those experiences and gives women practical advice on how to make the most of work without skimping on everything else. She encourages women to identify their own passions and talents, improve their communication skills, balance work and life while sharing her secrets for achieving happiness and success and maximizing pleasure. Not just another “business” book, Women, Work & the Art of Savoir Faire is a book about life: How to make the most of it, and how to find balance when working long days and trying to be happy and fulfilled at the same time. Guiliano shares her thoughts on everything from acing a job interview, to surviving the indignities of a long business trip, to hosting a business dinner in a restaurant, and segues easily from the small details to the big picture. In essence, she makes her readers feel like they are her trusted, longtime confidantes. Born and raised in France, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Don’t Get Fat and French Women for All Seasons, is the former CEO of Clicquot, Inc. and has appeared on countless national television programs, including Oprah, Dateline, and the Today Show, while being profiled in a myriad of publications, including the New York Times, Time, and Newsweek.
