Man's behavior is visible. His inner self is not. Through direct and uncontrived disclosure, we can begin to unveil the the mystery that one man is for another. Yet, we conceal our inner selves to be safe form criticism, ridicule or rejection. When a man does not acknowledge to himself and to others who he is, when he hides behind a wall of inner pretense, he is estranged equally from from himself and from society. This book describes the results of Sidney Jourard's 12 years of continuous research in the factor's involved in a person's willingness to let others know his experience. It is a book about self-disclosure.
