Body Language

Have you ever noticed that what someone says doesn't match how their body is behaving? Do you wonder how posture, movement and expression relate to the words people speak? This book looks at nonverbal communication, which often carries as much meaning as written and spoken language, even though we tend to trust words more. It examines how body language shapes the way people relate to one another, work together and handle different situations. It shows how physical signs reveal a person's emotions and inner state, and it teaches readers how to interpret those signals. Along with these core ideas, the book covers a range of additional topics, including techniques of persuasion for readers who want to use body language more deliberately.
