At the end of the last century, the idea of self-esteem became enormously influential. A staggering amount of psychological research and self-help literature was published, and before long was devoured by readers. Self-esteem initiatives permeated American schools. Self-esteem became the way of understanding ourselves, our personalities, our interactions with others. Nowadays, few people think much about the idea of self-esteem--but perhaps we should.Self-Esteem: An American History is the first historical study exploring the emotional politics of self-esteem in modern America. Written with verve and insight, Ian Miller's expert analysis explores the critiques of self-help which accuse it of propping up conservative agendas by encouraging us to look solely inside ourselves to resolve life's problems. At the same time, he reveals how African American, LGBTQ+ and feminist activists endeavored to build positive collective identities based upon self-esteem, pride and self-respect.This revelatory book will be essential reading for anyone with an interest in the history of mental health, well-being, emotions in the United States' unique society and culture.
The second coming is perhaps the most confusing, controversial, and contentious of biblical doctrines. In The Lost Message of the End Times, Ian Miller guides the reader through the many Old and New Testament prophecies that speak of Jesus''s return. As he does so, he brings their powerful, hope-filled, faith-inspiring, and life-changing message to life. With clear and easily understood explanations, this book will show you how the Scriptures reveal a world of promise, not fear; a kingdom present, not to come; and the powerful bride as she is, not one that needs to be raptured away.

Ian Miller is one of the most well-kent faces in the West of Scotland. A man of the cloth. An entertainer. A man who welcomed all denominations, anytime. A man who has married, christened and buried the great the good and the lowly with equalgravitas and humanity. This is his life-story so far. In 'Habbie to Jeely-Eater' we find out about the man behind the scenes. A weekend guest at Balmoral, a Church Minister, a Celtic supporter, a renowned speaker, an arsonist...? Well, no-one is perfect. Most of all, Ian is a family man who loved his Parish, and was loved back in return. 'Habbie to Jeely-Eater' is one of the most engaging and heartwarming autobiographies I have ever read. It had me laughing out loud on one page and sniffing back a tear on the next. Simply a 'JOY'. A bit like the man himself.
