Mobile technology and email have shrunk the size of the world. A lot of business is now conducted at arm's length and remotely, diminishing our face-to-face communications skills. Whilst it is now technically possible to pull off a big deal with a huge multinational, sitting home alone in our pyjamas, when that deal starts to go off course, genuine face time counts. Understanding body language is the key unlocking a secret code, exposing the thoughts, plans and actions of our fellow human beings. This insight is crucial in business and in all human relationships.

This book addresses these and many other matters on relating to 'reading' people and rekindling these basic human skills which have been lost in the technological age. Robert Phipps has written a superb book which should be essential reading for anyone in business or who wants to know what is really going on behind the mask.

I initially bought this book because I was interested in interpreting my own body language and seeing how I could have more control over it.

The book is geared towards salespeople which annoyed me a little bit. It talks about controlling others which I had no desire to do, and it discussed business settings. Again, not for me. I was more interested in studying the psychology of body language, and the physiology of how that works in conjunction with our brains.

So not the right book for that.

However, there were some chapters that were mildly useful although basic.

Not exactly what I expected, but I guess to some extent quite useful.
