English
By (author): Jamie Mullaney Janet Shope
On any given night in living rooms across America, women gather for a fun girls night out to eat, drink, and purchase the latest productsfrom Amway to Mary Kay cosmetics.

Drawing from numerous interviews with consultants and observations at company-sponsored events, Paid to Party takes a closer look at how DHS promises to change the way we think and feel about the struggles of balancing work and family.
