I had the privilege of seeing Marc Salem's show "Mind Games" and immediately pre-ordered the book. I was looking for him to reveal his secrets so I could amaze my friends. Well, guess what? As with virtually anything in this life, it is not an instant ability. It isn't a trick. And it's not magical, mystical, or extraterrestrial. It is, like most things, hard work, focus, concentration and practice, practice, practice.

Now, to be fair, Salem has a most engaging presentation, both in his book and, especially, in person. So the book is definitely a pleasant read. And I've no doubt that most people could apply his techniques with varying degrees of success, depending on how much time and effort they were willing to put into it.

Bottom line is that I would definitely recommend this book for anyone who wishes to become more attuned to what's happening around them.

And, by all means, if you have the opportunity to see the man in person... GO!!

5.0 out of 5 stars He gives you the keys and all you have to do it unlock and empower your mind..., May 8, 2007

This review is from: The Six Keys to Unlock and Empower Your Mind: Spot Liars & Cheats, Negotiate Any Deal to Your Advantage, Win at the Office, Influence Friends, & Much More (Paperback)

I found this book to be a fun read and very insightful. I had the chance to see Marc Salem live at a local theater and couldn't wait for this book to come out. There are fun experiments in it to try on others as well as a few other "mind games" I think you'll enjoy.

Would take a lifetime, like Marc Salem has put into it, to be the expert body language reader and master of the mind he is. This book let's you get a look into this master's mind and who knows, with a little practice, maybe you can unlock and empower your mind too. You have to try the steps he suggests in order to make them work. Just like anything in life, if you don't try to do something you'll never succeed at it.

This is a great book for anyone and everyone. I found it to be very easy to read and follow. The things I've learned in this book have been very very helpful and you'd be surprised at how unaware you are of the world around you even if you are quite perceptive. Great read and highly recommended!
