The Psychology of Self-Esteem: The Impact of Self-Esteem on Motivation, Work, Friendship, Sex, and Romantic Love

Nathaniel Branden

ISBN: 9781559276023
Publisher: Macmillan Audio
Publication Date: 2000

ON AUDIO FOR THE FIRST TIME-THE WORK THAT FOREVER CHANGED OUR VIEW OF HUMANITY'S PSYCHOLOGICAL NATURE!

From the moment it was published, The Psychology of Self-Esteem was recognized as a groundbreaking book that challenged and shook the very foundations of psychoanalysis and behaviorism. Dr. Branden's philosophy broke radically with the "mainstream" contemporary psychology of the time and set a new course for our studies and understanding of ourselves and our deepest natures.

The genius of the benchmark work continues to shine through today, and its message continues to be of critical importance as we enter the twenty-first century. The Psychology of Self-Esteem presents a brilliant concept of the intertwining of human nature, mental health and illness, and the conditions necessary for the achievement of mental well-being.

Here is the work that provided the genesis for so many concepts that today we take for granted. Here is an accessible, clear explanation of the true meaning of self-esteem, the relation of reason and emotion, the nature of free will, and the powerful impact of self-esteem on motivation, work, friendship, sex, and romantic love. This classic work is fresh, contemporary, and as vital and powerful as the day it was written. It remains a revolutionary contribution to man's understanding of himself.

My Years With Ayn Rand

Nathaniel Branden

ISBN: 9780787945138
Publisher: Jossey-Bass Inc Pub
Publication Date: 1999
Binding: Softcover

A few years ago, when a survey by Reader's Digest and the Library of Congress asked respondents to rate which books had most influenced them, Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged came in second only to The Bible. Nathaniel Branden, now recognized as a pioneer of the self-esteem movement, first read Rand's Fountainhead when he was fourteen years old in Montreal. He became totally swept away by the author and her philosophy. Six years later he moved to Los Angeles and began a tumultuous eighteen-year relationship with her. He started out as her disciple and apprentice, developed into a working partner, slipped recklessly (they were both married) into a dangerous sexual relationship, and ended up feeling angry and betrayed. Fraught with drama and passion, this book is also an intellectual dialectic, chronicling the still controversial philosophical movement -- objectivism -- that Rand and Branden built together. But at the very center of the book is an unforgettable portrait of the famous and difficult Ayn Rand, still so widely loved and feared today.

The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem

Nathaniel Branden

ISBN: 9780553374391
Publisher: Bantam Dell Pub Group
Publication Date: 1995
Binding: Softcover

Nathaniel Brandens book is the culmination of a lifetime of clinical practice and study, already hailed in its hardcover edition as a classic and the most significant work on the topic. Immense in scope and vision and filled with insight into human motivation and behavior, The Six Pillars Of Self-Esteem is essential reading for anyone with a personal or professional interest in self-esteem. The book demonstrates compellingly why self-esteem is basic to psychological health, achievement, personal happiness, and positive relationships. Branden introduces the six pillars-six action-based practices for daily living that provide the foundation for self-esteem-and explores the central importance of self-esteem in five areas: the workplace, parenting, education, psychotherapy, and the culture at large. The work provides concrete guidelines for teachers, parents, managers, and therapists who are responsible for developing the self-esteem of others. And it shows why-in today's chaotic and competitive world-self-esteem is fundamental to our personal and professional power.
