Mark M., PhD,
By Mark P. Malay, LMFT (Oceanside, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Face Reading: How to Know Anyone at a Glance (Paperback)
I have been attending Barbara's face reading classes on and off for the last 15 years. Barbara consistently demonstrates a depth of understanding others and doing so with great accuracy and finese. She is warm, compassionate and nurturing to her class. This book is an extension of those qualities.This book is the third edition I have read over the years and by far the best to date. The lay out style makes it a quick read allowing for quick uptake and application of basic concepts. Plus she includes sections with more challenges and in-depth insights. There are exercises and worksheets that engages the reader allowing for enhanced skill development. Plus she offers a little coaching on how the novitiate can approach others. Of course, the end result is a better understanding of one's self as well as others.

This review is from: Face Reading: How to Know Anyone at a Glance (Paperback)
From the reviews I read before ordering this book, I expected a much better-organized and comprehensive treatment of this fascinating topic. Many of the author's anecdotes have nothing to do with her face reading ability, but rather her psychic sense of what is going on with an individual. While I am sure this is very valuable for Ms. Roberts and her clients, I was disappointed that in many of her examples she draws no conclusions that relate any part of her "Stories That Faces Tell" to face reading. Many random details of face reading are included in the exercises that ask the student to employ the skills already presented, and while I enjoyed all these little nuggets, I wished they had been organized into a comprehensive whole. I much prefer the comprehensive and articulate work of Lillian Bridges in Face Reading in Chinese Medicine. While Barbara Roberts' focus is psychology/character oriented, Ms. Bridges' work includes most of the same details as part of a much larger whole.

Barbara Robert's Face Reading is a fascinating discussion of a little understood, but unusually powerful tool of understanding others and oneself. Written in a delightfully accessible style, Roberts presents the art and science of Face Reading, blending its practical, psychological and spiritual dimensions while providing concise, step by step instructions in its practice. Barbara's inclusiveness, compassion and sound scholarship come from a combination of her medical background and extensive study of the ancient techniques of Face Reading, making her book enjoyable, authoritative and highly useful. This comprehensive book covers business, career, health and romantic applications, as well as presenting anecdotes, exercises, illustrations and lore. Face Reading is invaluable for anyone who deals with others, and a wonderful window for self-discovery.

If you are in customer service, this book is a must read. I read this entire book in ONE full day and walked away with mind-opening insights. I loved it so much that it prompted me to have a personal face reading session with Barbara. What I learned from the session was that Barbara was spot-on with her assessment of my face. I was totally amazed at all the information my face has recorded. I am ordering sessions for my 2 sons ages 19 and 27 for Christmas. I believe their face reading will give them tremendous insight.I love the book for many reasons one of which is that it offers pictures of the various facial structures. Since I am a visual learner, this is invaluable to me. I have read the book a few times now and the information has undoubtedly helped me with clients. As a professional intuitive counselor, this book has become an invaluable tool. It allows me to analysis ones total picture. Our faces are indeed an amazing biography. Sincerely, Merry Street

Very visual and accessible,
This review is from: Face Reading: How to Know Anyone at a Glance (Paperback)
I loved this second book in Barbara's Face Reading line of books. I read the first one with accompanying workbook, and swore by it, but this one is soooooooooooooo much better! The pictures and drawings are really helpful in that you see the facial features she is writing about. Everything is accompanied by both drawings AND photographs. Nothing left to the imagination.What I love about this book is that Barbara gets right down to the meat of her topic. Her writing style is direct, straight to the point and easy to follow/comprehend. I don't know about you, but when I'm trying to visualize something, I detest disgustingly long paragraphs that go on and on and on and on. I just want to say, "Shut up already and SHOW me what you are talking about!" This is just what Barbara does best. She knows her topic is a visual one, so she actually SHOWS you what she's talking about. She lets you SEE with your own two eyes. And when you see that person with the huge ears, you won't tease him with taunts of "DUMBO!" You will want him to be your friend, because you know he will listen to you and actually HEAR what you are saying! Yay Barbara! And thanks to you, my new best friend has HUGE ears.

This review is from: Face Reading: How to Know Anyone at a Glance (Paperback)
This is a truly amazing and very insightful book. You'll be amazed what you can read in somebody's face and how it can help you to gain a better understanding of your own life. I had a personal face reading session with Barbara. She's a wonderful, truly gifted and incredibly intuitive face reader.Her book is a perfect guide on how to read and understand others better. It's so beneficial in all relationships: Knowing how to read a face helps to accept people and it gives you great insights to determine someones strengths, along with their challenges. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in the subject!
