نکات جالبی داشت. بیشتر نکاتش مربوط به ساکنان قاره اروپا، آمریکای شمالی و استرالیا بود اما تا حد زیادی هم می‌شد به فرهنگ خودمون اطلاقشون کرد و به کار برد.

This book comes with precise explanations. It is an easy-read, meaning that every one of us can understand what the author tries to communicate with us. Also... it is handy! Whenever you feel like you want to revise the concepts you have learned, you have the choice to dive right into your desired chapter and review the things mentioned there. I enjoyed it! So simple and straight-forward!

Preciso, informativo, cumple con su premisa, simple y no resulta pesado.

La verdad es que, aunque muchas cosas llegaban a ser obvias, para ser un libro de 1984, hay mucha información que no está generalizada, que no es conocida por todos, sin duda es informativo, llega lo que necesita y proporciona las herramientas para el entendimiento completo, las ilustraciones son algo imprescindible en este libro, muy bueno para iniciarse en el tema.

I'd recommend this book to anyone who deals with people. Which is really almost anyone. I'd also especially recommend it to writers and aspiring writers. I picked it up because I was tired of the narrow range of nonverbals I was using in expressing emotions in my writing. The book is organized the wrong way for writers. A writer would prefer that it be organized by feeling or emotion. (My character is angry. What body language might he be evincing?) Instead, the book is organized by parts of the body. (The arms are in this position, or that position, or the other position. What might that mean?) Still, it's fascinating, and it broadens the horizons. As for the main target audience of the book--people engaging in sales, or any kind of people-facing consulting--it's right on the mark. It's also an engaging and fun read. I borrowed this book from the library, but I think I'm going to buy it.
