Instantly discover what's really going on around you!

Know the truth before you ever hear a word!

Approximately 80% of communication is expressed nonverbally. When you know how to unlock the secrets of people's nonverbal cues, you'll always have the upper hand in any situation.

In The Power of Body Language, former FBI counterintelligence officer and recognized global expert on nonverbal behavior Joe Navarro teaches you how to "speed-read" people: decode sentiments and behaviors, avoid hidden pitfalls, and look for revealing behaviors. You will discover:

  • How the subconscious limbic system drives all body language.
  • Why the face is the least likely place to gauge a person's true feelings.
  • What thumbs, feet, and a simple handshake reveal about moods and motives.
  • The most powerful behaviors that reveal our confidence and true sentiments.
  • Simple nonverbals that instantly establish trust and communicate authority.
  • Why things taught about nonverbals in the '70s and '80s are incorrect.
  • And more!

Would you listen to The Power of Body Language again? Why?

Yes, there is to much in this book that can be easily forgotten.

His book is insightful, old movies like Ocean eleven would have you believe you can tell if someone is lying if the person looks up left or right. What you take from his book is you can't tell what they are thinking precisely, you can tell how people feel or what mood they are in. Which can give you que's to ask follow up questions to know why they feel the way they do.

IT helped open my eye's and made me monitor myself not so I could decisive, but to practice mindfullness. I am able to now think about some of the que's and know what I am feeling with more accuracy which helped me work through my emotions rather than be ruled by them.

"The Power of Body Language" by Joe Navarro is a fantastic audio book! The first time I have managed to listen to an entire audio book, from start to finish, in just one sitting.

I found the content to be very educational, as well as a fascinating insight into the world of body language. I am a complete beginner with no prior experience or knowledge of the subject matter, just a keen interest. I found this audio book to be well paced & structured, with clear & professional audio.

The only two criticisms I have are as follows... 1) It's a little slow to start off with, just for the first 30 minuets or so... 2) The overall duration of the audio book is a bit short. I would have liked a few more hours to really explore some of the content in more detail.

Overall I had a really enjoyable & engaging experience. I would definitely recommend this audio book to anyone with an interest in body language.

A fascinating insight into body language.
