Product Description

Product Description

This one-stop practical guide will show you how to understand what other people are really feeling – even before they do! To make your progress easier, it comes in a handy format with colour photos and expert advice throughout.

If you cross your legs are you relaxed or tense? What does it mean if you stroke your chin? Do you know the meaning behind a friend lowering their eyebrows? Would you know how to greet an inhabitant of Greenland? How would you subliminally show ownership of your brand-new car or house?

This book will answer all these questions and more. It’s fully illustrated with colour photographs which show hundreds of gestures, postures and ‘attitudes’.

By Miss Robinson TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I ordered this over a year ago, read it from cover to cover & still go back to it very often to brush up on my body language interpretation skills! It is such an interesting read & even has pictures to demonstate different actions (sounds patronising but trust me, it's not!)

Good Book 22 Mar 2011
Format:Paperback
I bought this book because I am a fiction writer and I thought a desktop reference to body language is a very useful thing, and this book is perfect for it. It is simple, set out into logical chapters and best of all it has many photographs that allow the reader to see what emotions look like. I admit if you are really looking for something in-depth this book may not provide it, but for hobbyists and those who are just interested in reading body language this book is great.
