Ever wondered how much talking the human body does without ever saying a word? Or eve heard the phrase fake what you want to be until you become it? Research shows that when someone acts like a superhero, they will start to feel and act like one. Every culture’s non-verbal cues mean something different depending on the culture. In this book, the authors explore the complexities of body language, explain what is really being expressed, and how one can use body and facial expressions to communicate more effectively

In a world where electronics are taking the place of human interaction, basic non-verbal skills have gone out the window with our younger generations. This book is a great guide that helps to bring back the basics and help teens to see a whole new world before them. The layout is well-done, the information is helpful and useful, and has practical advice for anyone to use. This book would make a great addition to most library collections. MS.
