✦ Synopsis


Research and theory on self-esteem have flourished in recent years.Β  This resurgence has produced multiple perpectives on fundamental issues surrounding the nature of self-esteem and its role in psychological functioning and interpersonal processes.

Self-Esteem Issues and Answers brings together these various perspectives in a unique format.Β  The book is divided into five sections.Β  Section I focuses on core issues pertaining to the conceptualization and assesment of self-esteem, and when self-esteem is optimal. Section II concentrates on the determinants, development, and modifiability of self-esteem.Β Section III examines the evolutionary significance of self-esteem and its role in psychological processes and therapeutic settings.Β  Section IV explores the social, relational, and cultural significance of self-esteem.Β  Finally, Section V considers future directions for self-esteem researchers, practitioners, parents and teachers.

This volume offers a wealth of perspectives from prominent researchers from different areas of psychology.Β  Each expert contributor was asked to focus his or her chapter on a central self-esteem issue.Β  Three or four experts addressed each question.Β  The result is that Self-Esteem Issues and Answers provides a comprehensive sourcebook of current perspectives on a wide range of central self-esteem issues.
