Very good information on self-esteem, how it is formed, it talks etc. Please note book for informational purposes !!!! This is not therapy or self-help book. That said I found it very well written and very interesting. I recommend this book to anyone interested in the subject of self-esteem. In looking for a good self-help book designed to increase self-esteem, I recommend "Dare" and "Assertiveness" Frederick Fanget
