Delivering a torpedo to a modern psycho-myth

Glynn Harrison has served us well in providing a corrective view on \u2018self-esteem\u2019. Not only does this psychiatrist look at the roots and development of the \u2018self-esteem\u2019 phenomenon, but also its extent, e.g. how it has shaped current educational thinking. This chapter alone should be read by parents and teachers.
