Twenty-six million moms work in America today. Although many moms may wonder whether it's really possible to do it all, a new book offers an insightful look into how well America's mothers are managing.

For women who want to build a career and those who must work for a living, "This Is How We Do It" (Hudson Street Press, $23.95) by Carol Evans, CEO and president of Working Mother magazine, transcends the guilt traditionally associated with being a working mother and focuses on the joy and fulfillment it can bring.

Drawing on original research culled from 500 working mothers and the magazine's nearly 3 million readers, 25-year tenure and best practices of the Competitive 100 Best Companies list, the book reveals specific, innovative, tried-and-true solutions of how working mothers across the country successfully balance family and career.

From altering the "one-size-fits-all" career track to better fit the shape of your own life to creating a network of working women within your community, readers can learn how to ask for-and get-what they need and companies will better learn how to provide it. The book is available wherever books are sold.
