About this title

From the Back Cover:

· DO YOU THINK THERE'S SOMETHING THE SALESMAN ISN'T TELLING YOU?
· IS YOUR COLLEAGUE SHOWING ROMANTIC INTEREST IN YOU?
· IS YOUR PARTNER TENSE AND FEELING DOWNCAST?

People's gestures speak volumes about their hidden thoughts, motivations, ambitions and desires. By correctly interpreting a hand position, a stance or even a gait, we can learn to better understand and communicate with colleagues, lovers, friends and even strangers. We can tell when someone may be lying, nervous, angry or amorous.

This comprehensive guide to body language will help you to read the meaning behind hundreds of non-verbal signs as well as understanding how clothing can be used to convey or undermine a message and how your handshake can show whether you want to dominate, give way or be considered an equal. You will learn not only how to understand the mental and emotional aspects of others but also how to get your message across efficiently.
