It’s great to learn about observing the behaviors and apply to real world situations

The book is so useful when you are reading people’s behavior. This can be used for people who has disabilities or have some specific personalities. The only issue is that the speaker (audiobook) skips some parts from the book so my suggestion is to pause and read whatever is being skipped then you can continue wherever you left off.

very insightful

I got a lot of value from the book. It was quite thought-provoking and I can't wait to listen to it again in the future

Excellent

Above all, great to know when meeting people. I would go through once again.. Dislike putting up reviews.

Thin Slicing

Thin slicing and giving out great questions or examples for the audience to use for practice in the real world.

mind blowing

I didn't expect this book to be this good, I learn things about my own self

Work on your own persona

you will learn how to read people better, work on your own image, the book talks a lot about first impressions, and even the way you speak. I find the narrator a bit dull, I got bored while listening, but the information presented was good.

Good concise information

Excellent basis for beginning to understand others better. This applies equally to work and personal relationships.

Tough read

The most disinterested I’ve ever been in a book. It was so much information in such a short time. I’m not sure how anyone would absorb the information in this book to benefit from it.

The facts he stated about deception detection

It is a good book I wished he would have used more real life examples I did learn a bit from it but I was expecting more decisive tools to be able to implement

Insightful and informative

Some things outlined in the book are probably well-known, but yet very refreshing when you look at them from a different angle. Cool read.
