A hundred times a day, our bodies send out little messages to the world. We arch an eyebrow in disbelief; scratch our heads when puzzled; shrug our shoulders to register indifference; or tap our fingers impatiently. A complicated code of gesture, posture, facial expression, and movement, this non-verbal language communicates (and sometimes miscommunicates) emotions more clearly than words. Like it or not, how we walk, sit, stand, and move affects the way people treat us. Do you ask to be ignored? Are you inadvertently sending out signals that smack of apology, aggression, or arrogance? Covering "space" issues, the language of touch, and cultural indoctrination, and illustrating with clear situational examples, the author analyzes the common gestures we use and observe each day and shows us how to interpret them correctly. A book that can revolutionize your approach to every relationship in your life,Body Language teaches you how to communicate effectively--even without words.
