People watching is as old as the human race. Beginning as a survival function - watching for signals of friend or foe - people watching now provides a wealth of information about the world around us and the creatures that inhabit it. Dr Wolfgang shows us how to sharpen our people watching skills and explores the degree to which culture influences what and how we see.

This book underestimates your capacity.,

This review is from: Everybody's Guide to People Watching (Paperback)
Despite the title, this book does not have more than five or six paragraphs with actual instructions on people watching. It mostly talks about the usefulness of people watching and never gets to the point. The text is very brief and its intellectual level is below the average; the author assumes that the reader has less than mediocre emotional and verbal intelligence. I would be ashamed if someone found this book in my library, so I threw it away.

This review is from: Everybody's Guide to People Watching (Paperback)
believe me: doesn't worth your money and time.
Any useful tips, any logical scheme, just teached me to look at people, anywhere, and - surprise surprise - we are different one each other ! In few words, I soon realized to have purchased a "Someone's Guide to Everybody Watching" ! I was so delighted that within Nov. 6 2004 I'm gifting that copy under simply email request for FREE - it's New - and I'll dispatch it worldwide if you'll pay postal expenses; after Nov. 6, then I'll throw it away in the bin. fabio.friso@libero.it
