{"product_id":"others-in-mind-philippe-rochat-9780521506359","title":"Others in Mind: Social Origins of Self-Consciousness","description":"Why are we so prone to guilt and embarrassment? Why do we care so much about how others see us, about our reputation? What are the origins of such afflictions? Philippe Rochat argues that it is because we are members of a species that evolved the unique propensity to reflect upon themselves as an object of thoughts; an object of thoughts that is potentially evaluated by others. But, the argument goes, this propensity comes from a basic fear: the fear of rejection, of being socially \"banned\" and ostracized. Others in Mind is about self-consciousness, how it originates and how it shapes our lives. Self-consciousness is arguably the most important and revealing of all psychological problems.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philippe Rochat\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521506352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521506359\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/09\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.17h x 6.87w x 0.95d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2009","brand":"Philippe Rochat","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48443507015935,"sku":"9780521506359","price":138.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9a89a362-1974-48fc-87d0-2979f07a3c44.jpg?v=1777205948","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/others-in-mind-philippe-rochat-9780521506359","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
