Summary of Rethinking Narcissism by Craig Malkin | Free Audiobook

The Bad - And Surprising Good - About Feeling Special.

Today, society is becoming obsessed with the topic of narcissism. In fact, “What is narcissism?” is one of the fastest rising searches on Google, and articles about the topic are continually going viral. Yet, despite its popularity, the word elicits the same negativity as words like sexist and racist. In other words, being a narcissist is bad - really bad. What’s worse is that millennials, or those born after the 1980s, are consistently being branded as “the most narcissistic generation ever.” The truth is, we are all narcissists. We all fall on the narcissism spectrum somewhere between utter selflessness on one side and arrogance and grandiosity on the other. Furthermore, we might know that having too much narcissism can be unhealthy, but according to Malkin, too little narcissism can be just as detrimental. Instead, we should aim for a healthy amount of narcissism which Malkin details throughout his book Rethinking Narcissism. As you read, you’ll learn how narcissists aren't always easy to spot, why parents are typically to blame, and how narcissists play emotional hot potato.
