Well, it just gets worse and worse doesn't it? Collapsing banks, collapsing countries, massive government cuts, rising debt, inflation and the possibility of a double dip. It's amid all this uncertainty that the already embattled modern woman needs the best advice she can get about how to be as cool and calm in life as possible. "Keep Calm for Ladies" offers the same pearls of life wisdom as "Keep Calm and Carry On" but with women at their wits' end in mind.
