About this listen

A fresh, insightful guide to reading body language in the post-digital age

Whether you're at a job interview or a cocktail party, searching LinkedIn, or swiping right on a dating site, you want (no - need) to understand what people are really thinking, regardless of what they're saying. Understanding what others are trying to tell you with their posture, hand gestures, eye contact (or lack thereof), or incessant fiddling with their iPhone might all be even more important than what you're projecting yourself. Do they plan on making a deal with your company? Are they lying to you? Can you trust this person with your most intimate secrets? Knowing what others are thinking can tell you when to run with an opportunity and when not to waste your time, whether at work, in a crucial negotiation or on a promising first date.

Best-selling authors Mark Bowden and Tracey Thomson, principals at the communications company Truthplane, illustrate the essential points of body language with examples from everyday life, leavened with humor and insights that you can use to your advantage in virtually any situation.

Mark’s politics appear to be dictated to him

It is hard to take a body language instructor seriously when his book consistently announces obviously manufactured narratives as fact.

His insertion of political views and the assumption of these being shared becomes insufferable at times.

He is completely one sided in this respect and it removes the credibility he works to establish with other portions of the book.

I am disappointed and wouldn’t suggest this work to anyone even those who agree with him.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
