'Many patients seeking psychotherapy suffer from a deep disturbance of self-esteem, manifested by feelings of inner emptiness, lack of initiative, and various malfunctions in the social and sexual sphere. The essence of this hitherto ill-recognized syndrome, which the author calls Narcissistic Personality Disturbance, is a defect in the person's sinse of inner cohesion and continuity: an insufficient consolidation of the Self. This book defines the substance of the psychological illness from which these patients suffer and an important normal phase of personality development which is correlated to it.'
