Publisher's summary

Imagine how different your life would be if you could really know what other people were thinking in any situation.

Unless you hone into the non-verbal gestures people are giving off, you will never quite know exactly what they are thinking - whether it's reading your colleagues in the office, your spouse or kids at the dinner table, or even a complete stranger on the street. All too often, people fall short of really picking up the true intentions of others as they depend solely on the words that are being spoken. They aren't equipped with the speed reading skills and behavior pattern identifiers to see these non-verbal signals.

Not anymore.

James Daugherty is an intelligence expert & former CIA spy who specializes in all forms of human behavior. But there's one skill which is critical to true communication: body language. A spy would be lost without the ability to read these gestures.

However, he never realized quite how much his ability to read others whilst working for the FBI & in the field as an American spy would help everyday people in civilian life.

Good supplimentry book for the subject

It's a good book for the introduction of basic concepts of bodylanguage

For more comprehensive study one needs to study from various books

Fine. Personally

Great Summary:

All too often, people fall short of really picking up the true intentions of others as they depend solely on the words that are being spoken.

Common body languages

It is about chemistry of brain for different behaviors and more common body language that is well known by most of the people. I was expecting more about ones known by as ex spy he was and got trained

Very basic knowledge

It's a decent book. I expected a more thorough breakdown of body language. This book merely scratched the surfaces. It decent for someone that needs direction and gives details if you want to go in depth but, I shall not get another writing from this author unless he got into science fiction, paranormal novels. Those types of books are supposed to leave you wanting more.
