Definitive Book Of Body Language

This book is a familiar one. I have read it many times. I bought it again as a gift for a friend of mine. He writes and tells me it is a great book and will be very uselful in his line of work. ( He is a tax inspector - in Australia).The observations by the authors along with their very precise explanations quickly helps you understand how to read the body language of anyone who is not being honest or direct with you. If you are a photographer this is a 'must have' and you will see your photographs improve very quickly once you have read this wonderful book.Bruce Hart.

The pictures are simple and I found the book interesting and easy to read. If you have an interest in body language, this is a good place to start

So, are you proper, or do they hate you? An interesting read, but I really think that we need to try have lasting audible conversations, as well. One might think that foreign people might have interesting body language to study as well. If we are all being mostly appropriate, hopefully, this might be a helpful book. I think we need to try to do good things to communicate with our fellow man. Like, am I really not allowed to face a person I am speaking with or I want to date them? People are most likely, more formal, but if we wanted to analyze things. I haven't read it in a long time. Becky Dokter Grelson, Blonde, female, five foot eight. November 2024. Omaha, Nebraska

Love this book. It was quite insightful and enjoyable to read.

An excellent book, one which i use as a reference and never hesitate to go back to every now and then

I gave it a 3 star because other authors had me on the hype train by using a great quote from the book. The rest of the book was predictable and I did not learn anything new (you can find the same information for free online).

this is my favourite book, the book arrived late (takes 2 month to arrive at my place) but still happy to receive it today

Another great book to study body language (non verbal) communication which man often ignore.

This is the 3rd book I've read from these authors....always an enjoyable, informative and funny to read! I took a star off as I did find some of the information repetitive (from previous books of theirs & within this book) but that aside, this book was a very good & interesting read.

Some of the contents are new but most of it is more like a common sense that we already knew and some can be seen in youtube itself.... anyways it's a good book... I love it🤩🤩

I have not yet tested all the techniques from this book, but the general impression I have after reading it, is that the author really knows his stuff, but that the said “stuff” only comprises about 10% of what is written. If he were to put it all in a summary, it would only take about 10 pages and that’s not exactly big enough for a book, so the authors filled the remaining 90% with other statements, either to support or to embellish their arguments. Some of these statements are interesting and supported by data, but some are questionable and, at least a couple of times, I caught the writer being simply wrong.So, some of it ends up reading like faulty logical conclusions of a kid who is discovering the world for the first time and thinks that the wind must occur because the trees shake and displace the air.Nonetheless, a lot of the info is quite useful, if you are capable of recognizing it. The communication is relatively clear and there are illustrations, which although aren’t great, do help to get the point across. You may however feel the need to read a few other books on this subject for the purpose of certainty.

I hope you dont mind me having at least one rating in german tongue.Das Buch liest sich für deutschsprachige Personen gut, wenn man einige eher seltene Wörter nachschlägt.Sobald geschehen, schildert der (die Autoren) Autor verständlich, einfach und unkompliziert mit prominenten Beispielen unterlegt die Grundlagen der Körpersprache. Auch für Verkäufer und Reder sowie für PUAs (Pick up artists, Frauenverführer) sind viele wichtiche Anmerkungen enthalten, die in die Kapitel eingearbeited sind. Zum Beispiel wenn ihre Zuhörer oder die Person, der sie etwas verkaufen möchten sich vorlehnt, zeigt sie Interesse, wenn die Person gleichzeitig die Hand am Kinn hat ist INteresse da, jedoch noch mit Unsicherheit verknüpft. An solchen Stellen werden hilfreiche Tipps gegeben, wie z.B. wenn sie das eben beschriebene "Cluster" bemerken, sollten sie als Redner nach eventuellen Unsicherheiten fragen um ihre Zuhörer wieder auf die Einvernehmlichkeitsschiene zu locken.Ich bin neu auf dem Gebiet der Körpersprache und dieses Buch ist ein Grundlagenwerk, auf das ich nicht verzichten möchte.

I like this book.
