5.0 out of 5 stars
the best book on self-esteem I've read, 28 Sep 2006
This review is from: The Inside Job: A Spirituality of True Self-esteem (Paperback)
Jim McManus really understands what it is like for people living with very little sense of self, and low self-esteem. He writes insightfully about the reasons why this is so, and offers a lucid account of how things can change for those who are seeking help. The book includes exercises to help build self-esteem, which are useful. Most importantly, he looks at where our 'sense of self' comes from and concludes that we are often looking in the wrong places for affirmation and identity.

Life changing read, 25 Aug 2011
This review is from: The Inside Job: A Spirituality of True Self-esteem (Paperback)
I borrowed this book from a friend & and half way through reading it I knew I had to have my own copy.
While reading the first part I felt a calmness & a sense that during my life I'd got many things right.
Later I became very excited & wanted to share what I was learning with everyone I knew.
I found parts of it very challenging which surprised me.
After I finished reading it I began reading certain parts again.
Not only have I reccommended it to many friends I have
bought copies to give to my dearest friends.
It's a long time since a book has had such a profound impact
on me & i'm really interested in attending seminars to hear the
author Jim McManus speak on the topic of this book and many
other topics.
I sincerely hope my review encourages more people to read this
book and they get as much inspiration from it as I did.
