This was a decent audio book for a long car ride. I struggled to stay engaged in the book, even through I am interested in the topic.

Overall good information and plenty that can be applied. A lot of it should be basic knowledge and probably is. Therefore it does come across as the “psychopaths handbook for social interaction and understanding”. Not a bad think but it would be a good book for that.

Reseña – How to Read People Like a Book by Christopher Kingler

Lo primero… ¿por qué estos libros tienen títulos tan largos? ¡Literal parece que te están contando todo el contenido en el título! 😅

Ahora sí, el libro en sí es decente. Explica lo básico del lenguaje corporal: cómo interpretarlo, cómo notar señales sutiles, y cómo defenderte de la gente que quiere manipularte. Si estás empezando en este tema, este libro es un buen punto de partida.

Lo mejor es que es fácil de entender, no se complica mucho, y eso ayuda si solo quieres aprender lo esencial sin volverte experto.

Peeero... lo escuché en audiobook y ahí es donde creo que pierde fuerza. Este tipo de libro —donde se habla de gestos, posturas y detalles visuales— es mucho más útil en físico o digital, donde puedas pausar, subrayar, y volver a revisar. Pero bueno, eso puede que sea más por mi estilo de aprendizaje.

En resumen: si quieres empezar a entender el lenguaje corporal sin complicarte, este libro cumple. Pero si eres más visual, busca el libro físico.

Some of this is basic knowledge. And others seem to refer to a lot of other things there's some stuff that I would like to hear more on or how it's actually processed or thought about I don't like this as an audiobook I think that this is a book that you need to physically read and have a copy of but in general I feel like there was a lot left out and kind of just telling you you need to do more research.

I do liked it it asked you to just observe and watch over the last the next little bit cuz I think that watching people's intentions without trying to put knowledge on it so like in a grocery store or something like that like he was saying helps you read somebody better when you're close to them we put too much emphasization on reading people when we're close to them so starting off with somebody that's not close to us.

There is a great multitude of information you can absorb from reading this book. You are truly learning about people inside and out and how to deal with them.

Learn to read body language

This is a fast and easy read about learning to read non verbal clues to a persons personality. I love the part most about picking up on traits.

Quick easy read

This book covers an important topic, for anyone who has dealings with people, so most everyone. Important to be able to read body language and facial expressions.

Just a little tip: if you write a book about reading people maybe don't start it by saying that you can't actually read people ????

I put this on as a random audiobook and uh this is terrible I doubt a majority of these claims are backed by any form of behavioral testing and it misses a lot of caveats
