How can you “hear between the lines” to detect a lie? When
is intuition the best guide to making important decisions?
What are the tell-tale signs of romantic attraction?
Jo-Ellan Dimitrius–America’s leading behavioral expert–shows
us how to spot the critical clues to a person’s integrity,
work habits, and sexual interests, and to interpret these
signs with accuracy and precision.
In this
phenomenal guide–now revised and updated–Dimitrius shows us
how to read a person like a book. By decoding the hidden
messages in appearance, tone of voice, facial expression,
and personal habit, she applies the secrets of her
extraordinary courtroom success to the everyday situations
we all face at work, at home, and in relationships.
New material includes:
• How to read people
in the age of terror: what to watch for during air travel
and trips abroad, and vital information regarding student
behaviors in the Columbine High School and Virginia Tech
shootings • What to look for on the Internet: how to
decipher behavioral patterns found in and altered by e-mail,
text and instant messaging, and on sites like MySpace •
Facts on body language and health: how chronic illnesses
such as Asperger syndrome and Parkinson’s disease influence
the way people are perceived, and essential tips on how to
counter these misperceptions • Fascinating new case
studies: how body-reading techniques impacted jury selection
and verdicts in major trial battles, including the Enron
case
Whether your focus is friendship or marriage,
career or family, romance or professional success,
Reading People gives you the skills you need to make
sound, swift decisions and reap the benefits of razor-sharp
insight.
