Extending Self-Esteem Theory and Research
Sociological and Psychological Currents
This book is an in-depth examination of self-esteem - people's positive
and negative evaluation of themselves as a person. Beginning with self-
esteem's conceptualization and measurement, this book carefully examines
the role of self-esteem in society and within and across various domains
and contexts of the human experience. Inspired by the seminal work on
self-esteem carried out by American social psychologist Morris Rosenberg,
the book serves as a comprehensive statement on self-esteem theory and
research in the late 20th century, with an eye toward the direction it will
take in the next century.
