Publisher's Synopsis

An increasing number of women today are wrestling with the question: how would you feel if you never had a child? while careers, money, and birth control have given women an acute sense of freedom, one crucial fact remains the years of fertility are finite - the biological clock keeps ticking. Based in part on the author's unprecedented survey this eloquent and informative volume presents the voices of hundreds of american women, from 25 to 45 who are "clockwatchers" - both married and single from all walks of life.
