I am a computer scientist, and I have been interested in learning to recognize non-verbal cues; my ability to do so has improved by reading Dr. Ekman's work. But the biggest lesson I gained from this book is this: If one has a passion for exploring something--like Dr. Ekman has for studying emotions--that person can overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles in life as Dr. Ekman has done.

Dr. Ekman's work has helped so many individuals -- this book is a look at the man behind the work. If you are interested in how research is done and the ins and outs of research this book is fascinating. I'm now an even bigger Ekman fan!

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting history of how micros got discovered
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2017
Verified Purchase
Since I saw the Lie to me TV show, I became interested in micro expressions. This book is a auto-biography of Paul Ekman who is one of the main researchers in this field. The book describes the steps and the events that triggered him in doing his discoveries and how he later became a good collaborator with the Dalai Lama and how that changed his life. It doesn't go into great length into the science of the micro expressions, but I found it interesting to read and learn how micros came to be.

Mainly an autobiography.
The book was very easy to read, but proved to be an autobiography of the author. It did not actually speak of how to read the face, but showed the incredible amount of research that went into his work.

Fascinating autobiography of Paul Ekman. Some interesting extra info on his subjects which are not in his other books on Micro and other emotions . I find all studies on Body/facial language very interesting and this book covers the background to a lot of his research.
Excellent book Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars de très bonnes observations et analyses
Reviewed in France on March 8, 2017
Verified Purchase
J'aime les livres de Paul Ekman, son analyse est pragmatique, et les études concernant son domaine sont de qualité, et scientifique en majeure partie.

De plus, il ne fait pas d'erreur comme beaucoup d'experts font, comme catégoriser les personnes, mettre des étiquettes à des personnes suivant une observation, ce que font beaucoup de personnes et qui faussent l'analyse.

Il est dommage que des personnes se qualifient de super-experts, en publiant les mises en garde de paull ekman (comme les caméras détectant les comportements suspects, qui ont été tuées, ce qui fut le cas au Brésil).

Et encore, il faut beaucoup d'humilité pour étudier ses livres. Certains se plaisent à croire qu'ils ont un pourvoir supérieur au aux autres en lisant ses livres, ce qui relève de ces certains à un problème psychologique plutôt qu'autre chose.

Science sans conscience est la pire de choses; on ne peut pas analyser un être humain tout simplement en se basant sur des croyances, et des étiquettes, et ses livres indiquent clairement que l'être humain est une chose beaucouup plus complexe que cela.

Reviewed in France on January 16, 2017

Dans ce livre, paul ekman nous raconte sa vie, son enfance difficile avec son père, le suicide de sa mère, ses recherches et ses difficultés de trouver des financements. Je lui trouve quelques longueurs quand il règle ses comptes avec ses "chefs' mais j'aime son honnêteté, même en présence du dalai lama.
Je comprends pas qu'il ne fasse pas le lien avec les thérapies cognitives, de l'influence de la pensée sur l'émotion.
