This international bestseller unlocks the secrets of nonverbal communication, giving you the confidence and control to excel in any face-to-face encounter—from making a powerful first impression to acing a job interview or finding the perfect partner. It’s a well-established fact that gestures reveal true intentions, yet most people aren’t equipped to read body language or understand how their own movements speak to others. In this book, the world’s leading experts on the subject share their techniques for decoding body language to achieve success in every area of life.
Drawing on over thirty years of experience, as well as groundbreaking research from evolutionary biology, psychology, and neuroscience, the authors break down each aspect of body language and provide you with the essential vocabulary to interpret attitudes and emotions through behavior. Discover how:
- Palms and handshakes are used to assert dominance
- Common gestures can indicate when someone is lying
- Leg movements reveal what the mind is thinking
- Male and female courtship signals are subtly communicated
- Everyday objects like cigarettes, glasses, and makeup convey hidden messages
- Smiles can be powerful tools—including specialized advice for women on how to smile effectively
Packed with captivating insights, witty observations, and practical strategies, this engaging book will enhance your ability to communicate and connect with others, while also deepening your understanding of yourself.
