Summary
Allan Pease, Barbara Pease: The Definitive Guide to Body Language
Another bestseller from the author of three comprehensive and very witty studies on a serious matter: male-female relationships. In this book, which is the result of more than 30 years of joint knowledge and engagement, Allen and Barbara Pease, internationally recognized experts in human relations and body language, reveal techniques that will show you how to interpret gestures and read unspoken thoughts and emotions and most importantly - how to draw the right conclusions. In this professional manual, written in a recognizable witty style, you will learn that people's body language reveals that what they say is often significantly different from what they really think or feel. Most people only see what they think they see. The point is to develop your ability to understand what is actually happening with the person you are observing, to connect what you see and hear with the environment in which everything is happening and draw a conclusion from it. Through 19 chapters, you will get answers to some of the most confusing questions about why people behave the way they do, and you will change your behavior forever. You will learn, for example, how to analyze handshake styles, how a smile can deceive the brain, what signals are sent by hands or eyes, why women are the best liars or how our feet reveal what is on our mind. After reading this book, you'll feel like you've just turned on the light in the room and seen something that's always been there - only now you know exactly what it is and what you need to do about it.
