More about the book
Exploring the economy of attention, this book delves into the interplay between self-esteem and the pursuit of appreciative attention. It highlights how one's self-worth is tied to the income of attention received, framing social interactions as 'vanity fairs' where individuals compete for recognition. These environments are not merely personal arenas but have historically served as crucial markets for addressing complex societal needs, effectively mobilizing human energies in the quest for validation and esteem.
