Two Pictures: Or What We Think Of Ourselves And What The World Thinks Of Us

""Two Pictures"" is a thought-provoking book written by Maria Jane McIntosh that explores the concept of self-perception and how it differs from the way others perceive us. The book is divided into two parts, each containing a different picture. The first picture represents how we see ourselves, while the second picture represents how the world sees us. Through a series of essays and stories, McIntosh delves into the reasons why our self-perception can be vastly different from the way others see us. She discusses the impact of societal norms, cultural differences, and personal biases on our self-image and how these factors can cloud our judgment. The book also examines the consequences of having a distorted self-perception, including missed opportunities, damaged relationships, and a lack of personal growth. McIntosh provides practical advice on how to bridge the gap between our self-perception and reality, including self-reflection and seeking feedback from others. Overall, ""Two Pictures"" is a compelling read that encourages readers to examine their own self-perception and consider how it may differ from the way others see them. It is a valuable resource for anyone looking to improve their self-awareness and relationships with others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
