"The envious will die, but envy never." -- Moliere. "The world "envy" is used worldwide, but its meaning lacks general agreement. Most people readily admit to feeling envy. It occurs in poetry and song, historical analysis, popular fiction, and many great dramas. In each instance it seems adequately grasped, yet not genuinely understood -- as if, like art, we know what it is but can't quite explain it. It is surprising that something that so pervades our lives should be so little understood and have received so little critical attention. After a century of virtual silence on the subject, however, new interest in envy has recently begun to emerge. Many consider envy a negative quality, one of the Seven Deadly Sins, while others regard it as a spur to personal accomplishment, useful despite the turmoil it may bring. Dr. Greenleaf addresses both its negative, painful aspects, and its positive, constructive uses. This comprehensive study examines the contexts of envy's usages and raises a broad range of questions. By exploring our shifting interpretations of this shadowy universal phenomenon, Dr. Greenleaf challenges us to get serious about coming to terms with it, providing us a starting point and an opportunity to learn more about how we think and behave." -- from the rear outer jacket. "Envy covers all facts of life, from theology to how we look at our co-workers, spouses, and even unacknowledged rivals in our daily lives. The book is a remarkable achievement." -- Ted Schwarz, biographer, historian, educator, and New York Times best-selling author. "One of the book's main strengths is its inclusion of many personal anecdotes -- some amusing, some poignant -- to elucidate theory, history, and social comment. Especially intriguing is the analysis of envy in advertising, used to manipulate our minds toward consumerism. The book is a comfort to me in helping me see that envy is not something we deliberately do; it is something that grabs hold of us." -- Richard Gercken, discussion moderator, former librarian, reviewer. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Victoria Greenleaf is the pen name chosen years ago to protect the identity of persons in earlier works. I am the wife (now widow) of a research scientist, mother of three sons, grandmother of five, and a physician by profession (psychiatrist by specialty). In each of these roles and relationships, I have been alert to experiences appropriate to write for psychiatric journal articles, books, and poems. One book of poems surveys the mother/child relationship from conception to marriage. The other deals with thoughts and feelings about our fast-retreating natural world. My late husband taught me the rudiments of scientific writing, and in all of my work his comments and suggestions have been invaluable. - excerpt from the inner rear jacket flap.
