Opis

Other Esteem is a creative, unique, and unconventional response to our society's apparent obsession with promoting the self. It challenges the wide spread belief that low self-esteem is at the root of all social ills.

Recenzje

"This is a 'must' book for anyone who is working in the helping relationship field. Particularly, elementary school counselors would find this book invaluable as a complementary reference to any and all efforts made to enhance self-esteem of counselees." -- Don Hays, Ph.D., University of LaVerne
"I enjoyed the book immensely. And, yes Dr. Hwang is often right on target with his major points. All in all, somebody needed to write this book." -- Howard Rosenthal, Ed.D., Author of The Encyclopedia of Counseling
"I really liked Dr. Hwang's book! I kept thinking of excuses not to put Dr. Hwang's text down! My overall reaction to the book was extremely positive. He shoots from the hip and is very direct, often contradicting authors of past works. He does not tell merely what we want to hear." -- Howard Rosenthal, author of The Encyclopedia of Counseling
