About this product

Product Information

Available for the first time in the United States, this international bestseller reveals the secrets of nonverbal communication to give you confidence and control in any face-to-face encounter--from making a great first impression and acing a job interview to finding the right partner. It is a scientific fact that people's gestures give away their true intentions. Yet most of us don't know how to read body language- and don't realize how our own physical movements speak to others. Now the world's foremost experts on the subject share their techniques for reading body language signals to achieve success in every area of life. Drawing upon more than thirty years in the field, as well as cutting-edge research from evolutionary biology, psychology, and medical technologies that demonstrate what happens in the brain, the authors examine each component of body language and give you the basic vocabulary to read attitudes and emotions through behavior. Discover: * How palms and handshakes are used to gain control * The most common gestures of liars * How the legs reveal what the mind wants to do * The most common male and female courtship gestures and signals * The secret signals of cigarettes, glasses, and makeup * The magic of smiles-including smiling advice for women * How to use nonverbal cues and signals to communicate more effectively and get the reactions you want Filled with fascinating insights, humorous observations, and simple strategies that you can apply to any situation, this intriguing book will enrich your communication with and understanding of others-as well as yourself.

    Not fast, not easy, but if you are willing to learn this book can teach you.

    Like every book telling you how to do something, you not only need to read the book, fully and carefully, you need to actually put it in to practice. The same is in effect here. You need to read the book, commit it to memory, and then put it into use, meaning actually paying attention to what you learned and paying attention to the subject at hand, and in this case what their body language is telling you, and not what they are saying with their mouth. Of course, the down side is finding out your friend hates the clothes you are so happy with/proud of, when they say "Oh, you look so wonderful!" instead of "That has to be the ugliest outfit I have ever seen!" If you want to find out what they are really thinking, you can do that by studying this book, but it isn't a thumb through and ...

  • Great read

    Looking to develop and grow my professional career and was exhibiting negative body language without knowing it. I was sabotaging myself. This book has raised my awareness of my own body language as well as other people's body language. I have a lot to learn but the lessons are simple and easy to put into action.

  • Definitive book of body language

    Words are important but gestures are seldom wrong.

  • Excellent book

    As an ex-FBI agent, his examples tend to show more of the negative than positive responses. However I am re-reading it to fix the examples in my mind. Good Job Joe.
