Research and theory on self-esteem have flourished in recent years.
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. The book is divided into five sections. 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. Section III examines the evolutionary significance
of self-esteem and its role in psychological processes and
therapeutic settings. Section IV explores the social, relational,
and cultural significance of self-esteem. 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. Each expert contributor was asked to focus his or her
chapter on a central self-esteem issue. Three or four experts
addressed each question. 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.
