This is the first book on body language that I read the whole way through. I found it quite interesting. There were a few sections that were inapplicable to me but over all it made sense.

Didn't really tell me anything I didn't already know.

But thanks for the Xmas present, Chop.

ترجة جرير في أسوأ حالاتها! أخطاء أسلوبية ونحوية بل وحتى إملائية غير مسبوقة ... شئ مقزز فعلا
ولعل البعض يتسائل سؤلا وجيها عن سبب شرائي لمنشورات جرير إن كنت غير راض عنها إلى هذه الدرجة؟ والسبب في ذلك من شقين
الشق الأول: منشورات جرير متوفرة ويسهل الحصول عليها وبسعر معقول حيث أعيش
الشق الثاني: أنا أسير في حياتي بمدأ "ما لايدرك كله لا يترك كله" فلماذا أحرم نفسي علما قد يكون مفيدا؟ فلو استطعت أن أتحصل من كل كتاب أقرأه ولو على معلومة واحدة فقط لكفى ذلك
أما بالنسبة للكتاب الذي بين أيدينا الآن فلم يضف لي جديدا يذكر إنه ومع الأسف واحد من تلك الكتب التي أصنفها ضمن مجموعة ال "بول شت" أو خراءة الثور - المعذرة - وهي عبارة عن كتب غثة يجيد الامريكيون - و على خطاهم تسير جرير والعبيكان - إنتاجها وتسويقها وبيعها لعثث الكتب سيئوا الحظ من أمثالي بالطن إجادة تامة ... في مثل هذه الكتب لا تجد سوى الرطانة والاطناب والتكرار لمعلومات مقتبسة من كتب أقوى على طريقة "قص ولزق" الشهيرة والرابح الوحيد هي المطابع التي تبيع خداعا نسخا بالملايين
مضيعة حقيقة للوقت والمال ... فليحترقوا جميعا في الجحيم بما جنوه من أموال لايستحقونها

One thing I like about this book is the last chapter and the summary.

No matter when or from where you start this book you'll won't miss anything because the entire book is religiously repetitive on how to read non verbal communication & present yourself so that you don't look stupid or aggressive.

Everything is basic knowledge in this book, but give it a try on others you'll see how many people lack basic etiquette & knowledge no matter where you're from. Probably you might be one of them, this book help you check that too like in every chapter.

Body language books have a bad reputation for being complete nonsense, this one is not the case, but that's because the body language is so basic that only people with no understanding of human emotions would find it useful. If you can draw a happy face, a sad face and an angry face, and you're confident that other people would accurately interpret the emotions of your sketches, then this book is not for you. However, I do respect the author for not making up their own untested theories like some other books.

Handy summary of positive and negative body language and how to recognise ,interpret and apply it in the real world... adopts steeple position .

[Al Capwned · Rating 1 out of 5]

Very repetitive, with information that is common knowledge to many people.

[Bu Raad · Rating 2 out of 5]

الكتاب مفيد نوعا ما ولكن افكاره تتكرر عدة مرات، يوجد بعض الافكار تكررت 5 و 6 مرات خلال الكتاب
ورتيب جدا، لا يوجد به حماس عالي والفائدة بالنسبة لي كانت محدودة بسبب عدم الدقة

ولكل منا هواه...

[ZAHRA · Rating 3 out of 5]

لأباس به لكن الأفكار مستهلكه نوع ما ، أعجبتني الرسومات الموجوده في الكتاب لذلك أضفت نقطة ثالثه .

[Anas · Rating 3 out of 5]

A good book that put a light on your blind spot about body language& tell you how to behave & react ..!

[Emily Wilson · Rating 2 out of 5]

2.5 stars technically
Was a good summary and brings all the theory together in one place but not much to write home about. Nothing to write home about

[Amy Gibbs · Rating 3 out of 5]

An interesting read will probably read again

[Mahmoud Ayman · Rating 4 out of 5]

A very simple guide to understand and communicate with people easily, to read between the lines and creat a more understandable connection.

[Jen · Rating 1 out of 5]

Very basic & repetitive - more a light introduction to the topic.
