5.0 out of 5 stars Enhanced with more than one hundred illustrations, July 4, 2001

By	Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews

The Power Of Face Reading is a splendidly presented update on the 3,000 year old metaphysical art of physiognomy which can help us to be a better communicator, improve our relationship skills with others, as well as acquire and enhance our insights into the character, ability, and predilections of human beings. Rose Rosetree pioneered the techniques for this modern adaptation of an ancient science. Her accessible and "reader friendly" text is enhanced with more than one hundred illustrations, a lively question-and-answer format to help apply theory to practice; self-discovery assistance in perceiving our own greatest talents as revealed in our personal facial features; lively and insightful commentaries for some 500 celebrities ranging from Einstein to Oprah; and insights into this "New Age" technique for personal and relationship oriented self-improvement. Of special interest is the chapter about how sex is reflected in unexpected parts of the face. The Power Of Face Reading is a unique, novel, and fascinating addition to any metaphysical, self-help, and relationship skill building reference collection or reading list.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best of the best!, December 2, 2005

By	Molly Blayney - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I know this book. I know this author. Rose Rosetree is a woman of the highest integrity and she is a great force. She's been on this path for many years, researching ancient studies and particularly refining the hidden traits found in faces. Each one of her books is a gift. But the wisdom contained in this one, The Power of Face Reading, showers the reader with clues and tips on discovering the very essence of, say, co-workers, first dates, celebrities, politicians -- any person with whom you might come face to face. For those with a sense of wonder and a hunger to know more, this is an easy read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Self Celebration!, May 13, 2001

By	Laura Olson - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Power of Face Reading: For Sales, Self-esteem, and Better Relationships (Paperback)

I was first anxious to use face reading for insight when hiring employees. Now my entire family enjoys the benefits from reading this book! My kids, in understanding their teachers, my husband, in communicating with his patients and office staff, and I help young girls and women celebrate and understand what makes them special as I work with their hair and makeup. You'll enjoy great humor, and the best multisensory language, allowing easy understanding and application of physiognomy - the art of face reading! This book has taught appreciation for what I had previous labled as negative people. Problem finding and solving is a talent - the eyes will give you a clue! Read this great book and you will have the knowledge to appreciate your unique self and everyone you encounter!
