'Imposter syndrome' is a persistent unjustified feeling characterised by doubt in one's abilities, the belief that one's success is fraudulent and a fear of having one's unworthiness exposed - despite respect from one's peers and an established record of achievement.
Author F. R. Aude has witnessed first-hand the damage this syndrome causes, having worked with doctors and professional people who have succumbed to the constant pressures they placed on themselves to overcome their own unfounded view of themselves as imposters and pretenders.
This book is an account of the gradual self-discovery experienced by Charlie, a young female doctor who falls victim to the self-doubt characterised by imposter syndrome, in the same
way many other similarly gifted, high-achieving individuals have done. Her story is told from the unique perspective of the Imposter Monster itself - the monster who is the source and instigator of her feelings of fear, personal inadequacy and guilt for never being good enough.
