Understanding the basics -- The power is in your hands -- The magic of smiles and laughter -- Arm signals -- Cultural differences -- Hand and thumb gestures -- Evaluation and deceit signals -- Eye signals -- Space invaders--territories and personal space -- How the legs reveal what the mind wants to do -- The thirteen most common gestures you'll see daily -- Mirroring--how we build rapport -- The secret signals of cigarettes, glasses, and makeup -- How the body points to where the mind wants to go -- Courtship displays and attraction signals -- Ownership, territory, and height signals -- Seating arrangements--where to sit and why -- Interviews, power plays, and office politics -- Putting it all together.

It is a scientific fact that people?s gestures give away their true intentions. Yet most of us don?t know how to read body language?and don?t realize how our own physical movements speak to others. Now the world?s foremost experts on the subject share their techniques for reading body language signals to achieve success in every area of life. Drawing upon more than thirty years in the field, as well as cutting-edge research from evolutionary biology, psychology, and medical technologies that demonstrate what happens in the brain, the authors examine each component of body language and give you the basic vocabulary to read attitudes and emotions through behavior.
