An unnamed narrator lives with her new husband, his two teenage daughters, and the unbanishable presence of his first wife, known only as 'she.' Obsessed with her, the narrator moves through her days presided over by the all-too-real ghost of the first marriage, fantasizing about how the first wife lives her life.

The book is about educational evaluation in the anthropological, hermeneutic research paradigm. It was the outcome of a small gathering of evaluators at Cambridge University in December, 1972.

Traditional emphasis on outcome measurement was criticized for its failure to grasp the complexity of change in individual behaviour resulting from prograammatic action. Its historical importance in this field is widely recognized.
