Second, using a data-driven statistical model for face representation, we build and validate models for representing face trustworthiness and face dominance. First, using a principal components analysis of trait judgments of emotionally neutral faces, we identify two orthogonal dimensions, valence and dominance, that are sufficient to describe face evaluation and show that these dimensions can be approximated by judgments of trustworthiness and dominance. Based on behavioral studies and computer modeling, we develop a 2D model of face evaluation.

Adding substantially to our knowledge and appreciation of this immensely popular and attractive figure, this book should appeal to many general readers as well as to scholars and students of modern Catholic history.People automatically evaluate faces on multiple trait dimensions, and these evaluations predict important social outcomes, ranging from electoral success to sentencing decisions. Finally, he offers a new understanding of Thérèse as a theologian for whom love, rather than doctrines and creeds, was the paramount value. He delves into the French medical literature of the time, in an effort to understand how the tuberculosis of which she died at the age of 24 was treated and lamentably mistreated. He gives close attention to her poetry and plays usually dismissed as undistinguished and argues that they have great value as texts by which she addressed and informed her Carmelite community. He charts the development of Therese's career as a writer. He draws extensively on the correspondence of her mother and documents her influence on Thérèses autobiography and spirituality.

He explores the dynamics of her family life and the early development of her spirituality. As a consequence he is able to offer a much fuller and more accurate portrait of the saints life and thought than his predecessors.

Nevin has gained access to many untapped archival materials and previously unpublished photographs. Therese has been the subject of innumerable biographies and treatises, ranging from hagiographies to attacks on her intelligence and mental health. As daughter of Allah, she is venerated widely in Islamic cultures. Having long transcended national and linguistic boundaries, she has crossed even religious ones. Her autobiography Story of a Soul has been translated into sixty languages. Pope John Paul II described her as a living icon of God. Thérèse is not only one of the most beloved saints of the Catholic Church but perhaps the most revered woman of the modern age. A Carmelite nun, doctor of the church, and patron of a score of causes, she was famously acclaimed by Pope Pius X as the greatest saint of modern times. Therese of the Child Jesus and the Holy Face, is popularly named the Little Flower.
