informative lighthearted reflective fast-paced

A very quick and easy read, simply written and fairly informative, making you more observant and more aware of small little details in every day surroundings. Contains things that we should all be aware of when communicating with other people, some more obvious than others. 
Having been published in 2004, some of the science might be a little outdated. Also, the ways of referring to women and gender relations was quite old fashioned.
The book is not foolproof by any means, but can serve as a starting points for further research into the topic, contains useful references.

One of the best all-around books I've read about body languages, the part about proxemics was expecially fascinating.

It was ok, but a bit dated and sexist.

Condensed wisdom - very interesting!

This book has information on smiling, laughter and even smoking. What do these things have to do with body language? This book was so much better than I had anticipated. The information is more in depth than a typical book on body language.
There's a section for interviews, power plays, and office politics, that gives information for nine golden keys to making great first impressions.
Ultimately, we all read subtle cues to body language, but we don't always recognize or realize it. This book may help you in recognizing the direction of someone's feet tells us more than the person's facial expression.

Very informative, enlightening text, sooooo wish there was an index of emotions. Like which body language gestures displays anger, but instead it is grouped by body parts. All the emotions displayed by how you hold your hands, all the emotions displayed by posture, etc. Maybe it's just me as a writer and how I wanted to use this book, I tried to make my own index in the back to help me because it is useful.

this book definitely deserves to be one of the bestseller books in the world and it absolutly worth to spend your time reading it
it makes me think of a lot of other people's reactions and relate it with what the book tells
and while reading it I was always interested in the next chapter and excited about it
I really want to read it over and over and over again

i hope that i'll find other books about body language with such amazing way of writing

Easy read full of interesting concepts. I would like to read more of the same genre. However, many of the "facts" stated by the authors are very subjective. In addition to that, the book would need to be updated as part of the content is clearly outdated.

This book was fun, insightful, really easy to just browse through, and full of all kinds of "ah ha!" moments. I recommend it for both social and professional situations -- you’ll look at your family, friends, co-workers and even strangers in a whole new way.
