5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!, November 28, 2003

By	sarah murrerhave (Manhattan, New York) - See all my reviews

I've seen Tracey on Date Patrol and it started me thinking about my body language. I bought superflirt on a whim because it looked like a fun read but it's actually changed my life! I'm now incredibly good at reading other people's body language which helps enormously in all areas of my life, not just romantically. Everyone should have a copy of superflirt and it should be recommended reading in high schools!

4.0 out of 5 stars Body Language 101, July 20, 2005

By	Robert I. Hedges - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

"Superflirt" is a good book for anyone (single or married) to learn about body language, and was recommended to me for that reason specifically. I now recommend it to others for that reason, as well. Certainly the focus is on attracting the opposite sex romantically, but it is just as useful to people already involved in a steady relationship to maintain the romance in their lives. While I certainly found the observations Tracey Cox makes to be interesting, I found her underlying premises related to body language utterly fascinating.

People who are naturally shy in potential dating situations certainly stand to benefit most from this book, but there is ample material for everyone to chew on. Most of her assertions seem to make complete sense, but a couple came across as a tad farfetched to me. Little matter: if any of her tips are true (and I believe the majority are) the book is completely worthwhile.

The book is nicely illustrated, and generally well designed. I have to admit to being a bit put off by some of the multi-colored pages and unusual graphic design in several places which I think make it a bit more difficult to read than was really necessary. I also found it to occasionally be a trifle unorganized, sometimes to the point of needing to flip back and re-read sections. That leads me to my prevailing comment on the book: there is so much technique and information discussed here that I definitely do not feel that I have learned what I needed to from it the first time through. The book requires at least two readings to grasp the essential elements of what the author is trying to get across. I am not implying that it is a boring read (far from it), rather, that there is just a lot of information presented here.

This book does truly help make sense of the actions of others. Whether in a steady relationship or not, this book is an excellent introduction to body language, and I recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent primer on reading the opposite sex, May 5, 2004

By	Jason Cox "regular guy" (Knoxville, TN United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

One of the things that both men and women know is that we communicate very differently verbally. Body language is a LOT harder to fake, and this book is a great starting point on how to read those signals. This covers a lot of material, from how to tell if she is interested in you (or that other guy), deciphering mixed signals, and tips to tell if they're lying to you. All very useful material.

As a man, I've found this informative and the way it is presented it is easy to put this knowledge into practical usage. I suspect it would be equally useful to women. And both men and women who may be sending negative body language unintentionally may have seriously life-improving revelations from this book.

Good Reading!
