The Mirror Effect: How Celebrity Narcissism Is Endangering Our Families--And How to Save Them - Drew Pinsky

Descriere The Mirror Effect: How Celebrity Narcissism Is Endangering Our Families--And How to Save Them - Drew Pinsky

The widely respected addiction and behavior specialist explores the role of narcissism in America's celebrity culture--and reveals how it is damaging not only society but individual lives. \n \nThe face of entertainment has changed radically over the last decade--and dangerously so. Stars like Britney, Paris, Lindsay, Amy Winehouse--and their media enablers--have altered what we consider normal behavior. According to addiction specialist Dr. Drew Pinsky and business and entertainment expert Dr. S. Mark Young, a high proportion of celebrities suffer from traits associated with clinical narcissism--vanity, exhibitionism, entitlement, exploitativeness--and the rest of us, especially young people, are mirroring what we witness nightly on our TV and computer screens. \n \nA provocative, eye-opening study, The Mirror Effect sounds a timely warning, raising important questions about our changing culture--and provides insights for parents, young people, and anyone who wonders what the cult of celebrity is really doing to America.\n
