The Best Books on Body Language<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This book\u2019s opening argument is that body language should be read like a word in a sentence rather than a standalone gesture. It\u2019s an important stance to take because it tells readers not to put too much emphasis on signals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s laid out much like any other \u201chow-to\u201d book. The authors provide examples of common body language signals and explain how to read them. You\u2019ll find out about lying, interviewing and negotiating, and how to make yourself likeable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are arguably the most common reasons people want to learn about body language, so it ticks the boxes of an introductory guide. The language is fairly clear and easy to read, meaning you can dip in and out as needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That said, its style won\u2019t be for everyone. The Peases use many examples from business and politics, so some might not find them applicable to everyday life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
