This book is an in-depth examination of self-esteem--people's positive and negative evaluation of themselves as a person. Beginning with self-esteem's conceptualization and measurement, the book carefully examines the role of self-esteem in society and within and across various domains and contexts of the human experience. Inspired by the seminal work on self-esteem carried out by American social psychologist Morris Rosenberg, the book serves as a comprehensive statement on self-esteem theory and research in the late 20th century, with an eye toward the direction it will take in the 21st century.

"Many collections are uneven in quality and contribute little to the advancement of their field. This one is an exception. There is much wheat and little chaff, and students of self-esteem will find stimulating insights and research findings in almost every chapter." Contemporary Sociology

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Self-esteem is an academic and popular phenomenon, vigorously researched and debated, sometimes imbued with magical qualities, other times vilified as the bane of the West's preoccupation with self. Though thousands of articles have been devoted to the topic, and bookstores work to feed the public's appetite for advice on revealing, enhancing, and maintaining self-esteem, conflicting claims and findings have placed the field in disarray. In a very real sense, self-esteem is a victim of its own popularity. This book seeks to add clarity to a concept earlier examined by such notable self theorists as Morris Rosenberg but eminently worthy of reexamination and extension. We do this by asking some leading thinkers on self-esteem theory, measurement, and application to assess what we know about self-esteem, link it to important aspects of society and the human experience, and position it for the twenty-first century. An in-depth examination of self-esteem, this book looks carefully at the role of self-esteem in society and within and across various domains and contexts of the human experience. It serves as a comprehensive statement on self-esteem theory and research in the late twentieth century.
