Coming to the defense of self-esteem as a valuable and measurable component of good mental health, Feeling Good by Doing Good offers a new evidence-based approach to defining, understanding, and increasing what is known as "authentic self-esteem." Translating decades of research in the fields of self-esteem, humanistic psychology, positive psychology, and psychotherapy into everyday terms, Christopher Mruk traces the definition of self-esteem back to when it was first used to describe the value of "doing that which is both just and right."

Christopher J. Mruk, Ph.D, is a professor of psychology at Bowling Green State University in Ohio where he has received the University's Professor of Teaching Excellence Award along with other teaching and research awards. He practices as a clinical psychologist, writes in the areas of self-esteem, positive psychology, and psychotherapy, and is a fellow of the American Psychological Association.
