5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent guide to improving self-esteem for women., April 23, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Women and Self-Esteem: Understanding and Improving the Way We Think and Feel About Ourselves (Paperback)

This is a succint and comprehensive guide to understanding how self-esteem is developed and how it can be enhanced. The authors examine the impact of developmental, cultural and religious attitudes and of media influences on a woman's ability to accept and appreciate herself. They also offer specific, practical advice on how to address the various difficulties that arise as a result of low self-esteem. This is a valuable book, thoughtful and well-researched.
