Publisher's summary

Imagine how different your life would be if you could really know what other people were thinking in any situation.

Unless you hone into the non-verbal gestures people are giving off, you will never quite know exactly what they are thinking - whether it's reading your colleagues in the office, your spouse or kids at the dinner table, or even a complete stranger on the street. All too often, people fall short of really picking up the true intentions of others as they depend solely on the words that are being spoken. They aren't equipped with the speed reading skills and behavior pattern identifiers to see these non-verbal signals.

Not anymore.

James Daugherty is an intelligence expert & former CIA spy who specializes in all forms of human behavior. But there's one skill which is critical to true communication: body language. A spy would be lost without the ability to read these gestures.

However, he never realized quite how much his ability to read others whilst working for the FBI & in the field as an American spy would help everyday people in civilian life.

Detailed explanation

A very interesting book that provides some valuable insights into the involuntary way that human beings present themselves and react in certain situations. The book contains plenty of examples and details about the body language of people in certain situations. These situations could be when they are happy, when they are under pressure or even not telling the truth.

Very useful

This is a great book. It is long and thorough. It has different situations which are very useful to understand the body language the author is talking about. The book goes above and beyond to talk about just about every type of body language possible. It includes much more than discussion of facial expressions.

Appreciable audible

Though the book provide certain clues and behaviors that may indicate certain attitudes from people interacting with you, the author focus most of his attention on stressful situations, interviews and ways to detect deceptive speeches.

Awesome Audiobook

The teaching quality is wonderful. This book is certainly helpful for understanding what body movements are signaling, and it even helped me see what I myself am communicating.
