Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Not really! Its sort of a guide book not a story based one and that's why from time to time you'll have to get back to some chapters.

Any additional comments?

Buy it! Might help you! ^^

Great, I really enjoyed it!

Any additional comments?

It was a good insight into the world of body language and now I am hooked. Thanks so much

interesting topic

never really thought about trying to study body language, and a lot of it intertwines with psychology which is something I'm interested in. neat book, need to read it again and actually take notes to be able to use it in real life.

Better in print

Great information. Straight forward. But better as a reference manual in print than an audible book. I would give this 4 stars in print, but 3 stars in audio.

Ok book

Wasn't really what I was looking for. It doesn't really teach you a lot of body language movements that you can read on other people. More about facial expressions, which were sometimes hard to imagine when your listening without pics.

Enjoy the book

I learned a lot from this book and I thought it was very good. I highly recommend it to my friends.

Change your body

What made the experience of listening to The Power of Body Language the most enjoyable?

I learned a lot from this book that I haven't from other books. Although I enjoyed the other book by the FBI agent, Tonya has a much more pleasurable and sexy voice that kept my attention longer.

I'll be listening to this book several times a year, at least, to keep refreshing me on how to be a better communicator.

What did you like best about this story?

I like that she not only gave descriptions of body language but also that she gave a perspective from the male AND female side. This has helped me to understand how my body language is perceived by the opposite sex.

Interesting and useful tools.

This book was really interesting. It has some great information that could really give you an edge in your communication skills - if you could just remember it all! This book probably deserves a couple of listens if you actually want to benefit from the knowledge. Tonya Reiman's reading is good and gets better as she progresses through the book. This book is much more interesting that some of the other books about body language.

Great book

Any additional comments?

This would have been infinitely better in print with illustrations. In fact, it would be incredible on DVD. As an audiobook, it is a bit challenging sometimes to picture the facial features or body postures/movements she describes. Nonetheless, a thoughtful, well presented and stimulating listen. Just because something could be better in a different media format, I can't take away stars. It definitely earned what I gave it (4's and 5's).

Bullet points about body language - straight to the point - fast, quick & easy

It really goes into depth and what may or may not be true.. depending on other circumstances. Talks about both for men & women; men towards men, women towards women, men towards women & women towards men (don't usually write reviews so this is worth the effort
