Because our ways of understanding the world are mediated by our use of language, J.-B. Pontalis suggests that a close look at our private lexicon can uncover a great deal about what we value. Beginning with one of his own linguistic preoccupations, the metaphor of the window, Pontalis considers language as a vehicle for both self-awareness and self-deception; he explores how we choose or eschew certain words to create our life-stories and demonstrates how these words conceal-and reveal-our most intimate preoccupations and desires.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51883002069280,"sku":"NEW0803287712","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/91BysmSMljL.jpg?v=1781852041","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/windows-0803287712","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
