It is a very good book, and it helped me to see that I was going through my Midlife Crisis as well.
There is a section that specifically talks about women in their MLC, and I swear he new exactly everything that I had felt and everything that I had went through. Other than there was never OM.
I tried to find the book in the Library, but didn't have much luck here, but you might find it where you are. He uses his own experience and then David's experience with Bethsheba.
What I also learned is that most of the people who are going through MLC are going through more then one stage at a time. Even according to what he wrote about withdrawal, they will go back and forth into all the stages until they have dealt with all of their issues and closed the door on them. I think that he said that they can go as far back as anger. As each issue is faced, a door gets closed and they can not go back to that stage.
