All that stuff about micro-expressions, or the show Lie to Me? This is where it all comes from - the work of Paul Ekman. I use this information every day.
This is an indepth dive into the intricacies of facial expressions. It was helpful background while I prepared to discuss topics like microexpressions in my own work.
Very helpful for teaching one to manage their emotions, and to become more aware of others emotions as well. I feel like I learned a lot. I have a better understanding of my own emotional triggers and can better control my emotions for that reason. It touches on micro expressions, which greatly fascinates me and gives you opportunity to feel how your face and body respond to certain emotions which helps you to recognize those emotions in other people. If you have any interest in bettering your understanding of emotions and emotional control I recommend reading it :)
I began with an interest in understanding others' expressions, and ended with an increased understanding of myself. It's taken a while to get to the end, but I guess the time was right now and it worked out; a great read which I'm glad to have kept pursuing over the past couple of years.
I am amused to the extent that this book talks about emotions without getting into psychology. Sometimes it comes very close (in the chapter about anger for example (though it’s wrong, but I won’t judge)), but it never crosses over.
It’s almost as if someone came up with a character just on the cusp of discovering meta cognition. Yet never quite does. Fascinating.
The book does provide some rare information on how to mechanically produce an emotion via manipulation of the facial muscles (and vice versa: how to spot an emotion). Which I guess implies that the author believes it can go both ways, which is likely to be true.
The information on how to mechanically reproduce an emotion, and vice versa, is useful. I’m now capable of spotting when I feel sad. I didn’t know what this phenomenon was.
This book is, at its core, a concrete how-to book.
It treats emotions as a given. A random thing that happens to us with no rhyme and reason, like rain and sunshine to an ancient peasant.
You will be dissapointed if you expect a system behind the individual emotions, or inquiries into the why (ie, psychology), as I was.

This is an excellent psychology book. Ekman's style is personable and laid-back. By being completely honest about how much of his own research he is citing (and when he's referring to his own hunches), he retains academic transparency, and by clearly describing ways to recognize emotions in others, he imparts the beginning of a skill set everyone should know. I'm grateful that at least someone in psychology has managed to find a way to train people to learn a skill through psychology research, and I'm interested in his microexpressions training (which I'll probably complete once I can bring myself to spring $70 on it: http://face.paulekman.com/products.aspx).
Interessante sulle emozioni e sulle espressioni che le rappresentano. Insegna a riconoscerle 7
I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
Paul Ekman doesn't only cover basic emotions but also how to read them in others. As someone that struggles with this thanks to my neurotype I found it quite helpful.
At the same time I found some of the chapters and example very lengthy and struggled to stay attentive throughout.
All in all I'd recommend the book.

Minik bir inceleme bırakıyorum, umarım işinize yarar. Paul Ekman'ın önceki kitabına göre çok karışık buldum bunu. İlk olarak, kitabın adı, içeriğe uygun değil. 300 sayfa boyunca mikro ifadelerin ne olduğunu, ne sürede ve hangi kaslar yardımıyla ortaya çıktığını anlatıyor. Bunlar yararlı bilgiler, evet, ama kitabın adına bakınca daha çok yalana ve yalanın anlaşılmasına bağlı olarak mikro ifadelerin incelenmesini beklemiştim ben. Son bölümlerde 20 sayfa kadar yalan ile duyguların ilişkisinden bahsetmiş, başka yalan ibaresi yok. Mikro ifadeleri bilmek ve anlayabilmek başlı başına yalan radarı görevi görüyor ama önceki kitabın tekrarı olmuş diyebilirim ne yazık ki. Yazım hataları ve tahminimce çeviri sorunları da vardı, bu da bir dezavantaj. Konu hakkında daha işinize yarar bir kitap arıyorsanız Oğuz Benlioğlu'nun iki kitabı var, onları öneririm. Hem çeviri derdi yok hem de fazla terminolojiye girmeden açık bir şekilde anlatıyor.
Yine de görsellerle anlatılması ve bilimsel kanıtlarla desteklemesi bu tür kitaplarla aranan bir şey olduğu için keyifle okunacağını düşünüyorum. İyi okumalar :)
