Description (from the publisher):
Elaine Aron follows up her bestsellers on the highly sensitive person with a groundbreaking new book on the undervalued self. She explains that self-esteem results from having a healthy balance of love and power in our lives. Readers will learn to incorporate love into situations that seem to require power and deal with power struggles that mask themselves as issues of love. From the bedroom to the boardroom, her strategies will enable us to escape feelings of shame, defeat, and depression; dissolve relationship hostility; and become our best selves.




About the author (from the publisher):
Elaine Aron, Ph.D., is recognized internationally as one of the leading scientists studying the psychology of love and close relationships. Her work has appeared in the New York Times, Time Magazine, and National Geographic, and she has appeared on national morning shows on many networks. She is the author of The Highly Sensitive Person, The Highly Sensitive Person in Love, and The Highly Sensitive Child. She divides her time between New York and San Francisco.

This book was written for me! I was intensely self-conscious 7th grade up, and still am a little bit. Thanks for the contest!

I can certainly relate to the topic of this book. Since I just lost my job 4 weeks ago, my self image has taken a hit. I hadn't realized how much my job played a part in how I define myself. Could use a bit more self-esteem at the moment.
