Product Information

Notice how confident or high-status individuals will claim more territory with their arms than less confident, lower-status persons. A dominant man, for example, may drape his arm around a chair to let everyone know that this is his domain or, on a first date, might confidently throw an arm over a woman’s shoulder as though she were his property. Spy the Lie: Former CIA Officers Teach You How to Detect Deception | Multiple Authors A könyv nem csak a téma miatt tetszett, hanem azért is, mert Navarro eloszlat olyan tévhiteket, mint pédául hogy a félrenézés a csalás vagy a hazugság jele, amik annyira bevették magukat a közhiedelembe is, hogy én például akarva-akaratlanul próbálok ügyelni, hogy ne nézzek oldalra, holott ez csupán annak a leképezése, hogy a beszélő próbálja összeszedni a gondolatait (főleg mondjuk egy stresszes szituációban, mint egy állásinterjú vagy egy vizsga). If you want to be more persuasive, gain more confidence, develop your social skills, be better in future job interviews, or be an overall great communicator, this is a must-read. Books can help you understand basic body language cues, but each individual is as unique as their fingerprints and their tells are unique as well.
