The Dictionary of Body Language Review
The ultimate reference is body language. I will refer to and recommend this book daily for many years.
After reading “What Everybody Says” by the author, I really started to notice the body language, and that book was a really good introduction.
This one isn’t good as an introduction – it lacks illustrations and describes body language literally from head to toe, rather than the basics to niceties.
I think its main purpose is to jog your memory. If you are not sure what a particular gesture or pose means, you can search for it here. It is much easier to do with this book, as its content is classified from top to bottom of the body. Also, it has more information than “What Everybody’s Saying” and it doesn’t tell stories.
The book serves its purposes very well.
