Product Description
He says that's his best offer. Is it? She says she agrees. Does she? The interview went great—or did it? He said he'd never do it again. But he did. Read this book and send your nonverbal intelligence soaring. Joe Navarro, a former FBI counterintelligence officer and a recognized expert on nonverbal behavior, explains how to "speed-read" people: decode sentiments and behaviors, avoid hidden pitfalls, and look for deceptive behaviors. You'll also learn how your body language can influence what your boss, family, friends, and strangers think of you. You will discover: - The ancient survival instincts that drive body language
- Why the face is the least likely place to gauge a person's true feelings
- What thumbs, feet, and eyelids reveal about moods and motives
- The most powerful behaviors that reveal our confidence and true sentiments
- Simple nonverbals that instantly establish trust
- Simple nonverbals that instantly communicate authority
Filled with examples from Navarro's professional experience, this definitive book offers a powerful new way to navigate your world.

 Feeling out the people around you April 26, 2008

My whole life I've been told that I can read people better than anyone they know. I can come to near immediate conclusions with people around me, and can determine the type of person they are. That said, this book is an excellent start to reading people, and Joe Navarro covers the basic principle of body language very well. I would highly recommend this to anyone who meets people on a day to day basis, such as Salespersons, and Managers.
 Too Basic! June 8, 2008

This book was so basic and did not have enough pictures... it's a body language book for crying out loud! If you want to invest in learning more about non-verbal communication buy "The Definitive Guide to Body Language" by Alan Pease - that book is the best book on the topic that I have seen to date! Don't waiste your money on arrogant Navarro's book! TERRIBLE!
An invaluable & informative read June 14, 2008

I recently bought this book hoping to learn how to read and better understand the behavior of the business people and situations I come across daily in my work in finance. My hopes for this knowledge were SURPASSED as the guidance Mr. Navarro provides in this book is so practical and constructive you can start applying it immediately. I like his style of writing too - easy to follow, engaging with many real examples. I also found the pictures used throughout the book are very helpful in making a behavior memorable so I can look out for it as I go about my day, in and outside of work. I can see how this information could be applied to so many different jobs and situations, not just business and finance, and as such recommend it to anyone looking for more understanding about the behaviors of the people around them.
I'd give it more than 5 stars if I could, because it's already helping me as I apply what I've learnt.

Tremendously valuable information for public speakers (know when the audience is bored), interviewers, sales people, organizational change agents, and those of you who just plain want to know when you may be being lied to, or causing distress in the other person. Well written, to the point. Also, just a little bit fun.
