3.0 out of 5 stars Not Bad, October 11, 2003
By 
Glenn R Nielsen (Cedar Park, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Signals: How To Use Body Language For Power, Success, And Love (Paperback)
I recently entered the sales world. I realized during my short tenure how important body language is. This book does a good job of getting me started in at least one area. Being aware of my own body language, so others see me as more friendly and open.

It is an easy read with ok pictures. If you know little or nothing about body language, this is a good book to start with. Just don't expect to know everything, because body language is not black and white. I do recommend the book. Yes, I do read reviews and have been fooled by them often. I sometimes wonder if some of these people are paid to give these outstanding reviews or if I just have higher expectations. Good reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars Still the Best Value for the Beginner and Interim Student, February 23, 2003
By 
Mitch (Longmont, CO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Signals: How To Use Body Language For Power, Success, And Love (Paperback)
This was my first book on body language. It is still the one I use and recommend more than any other. It has all the basics in a no-nonsense KIS (Keep It Simple) format. A couple of items are a bit dated, (like the smoking and eyeglass mannerisms), but there is still 98% excellent material. Easy to read and understand. It is illustrated - simple illustrations but they make their point. Get it and start having fun and being more successful in your communication.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Signals: How To Use Body Language For Power, Success, And Love (Paperback)
Excellent, straight-forward book on deciphering body language. Line drawn illustrations, clearly written text without a lot of scientific mumbo jumbo and advice on how to react to certain behaviors to try to change situations to your advantage. Useful for anyone who wants to communicate more effectively.
