 Informative and Straightforward January 25, 2004
This textbook is helpful in terms of the basic principles in the the field of nonverbal, human communication. The chapters are divided into easy to understand categories of body language such as physical appearance, eye behavior, touch, space and territory etc. Subsequent chapters involve a more quantitative, holistic, and practical approach such chapters devoted to: female-male, supervisor-subordinate, intercultural nonverbal relationships. The research presented is also current.

 There are many better March 14, 1999
This book provides a decent overview. It refuted some of the more prevalent myths about "body language". However, the bang was simply not worth the buck. The paperback edition is published with what can only be surmised to be photographs of the authors' home and students as illustrations and examples. This book is a little too home-grown.
