Publisher's Summary
Instantly discover what's really going on around you!
Know the truth before you ever hear a word!
Approximately 80% of communication is expressed nonverbally. When you know how to unlock the secrets of people's nonverbal cues, you'll always have the upper hand in any situation.
In The Power of Body Language, former FBI counterintelligence officer and recognized global expert on nonverbal behavior Joe Navarro teaches you how to "speed-read" people: decode sentiments and behaviors, avoid hidden pitfalls, and look for revealing behaviors. You will discover:
- How the subconscious limbic system drives all body language.
- Why the face is the least likely place to gauge a person's true feelings.
- What thumbs, feet, and a simple handshake reveal about moods and motives.
- The most powerful behaviors that reveal our confidence and true sentiments.
- Simple nonverbals that instantly establish trust and communicate authority.
- Why things taught about nonverbals in the '70s and '80s are incorrect.
- And more!
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Excellent content and narration
Learnt a lot from this book. I wish Joe narrated all of his books. He narrates like he is just speaking with you or giving a lecture which I found to be 100% engaging as opposed to drifting in an out when listening to a book that is narrated by a professional. It's by far the most engaging audiobook I've ever listened to, and I've listened to loads. Content was excellent too. A lot to reflect on in this book.

Captivating and Fascinating
This was my first pick on audible. The narrator was very easy to listen to and emphasised well. Sometimes I felt he read so well that he was adding in his own personal stories - but he was simply reading the book with suitable emphasis.
I thoroughly enjoyed this and listened to it almost non-stop over two days while waking.

Body language 101
What did you like best about this story?
Easy to follow examples, very easy to relate to. Instantly made me conscious of my own signals. First basic thing I noticed and put into practice was it's very fun to observe people in public especially those on mobile phones; and the incredible amount of signals the Limbic System emits.
What does Joe Navarro bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Joe doesn't try to fancy this course up which is good because It doesn't need it. He keeps the content constant and steady enough for it to be interesting. I think another reviewer disapproved of the narration. Given Joe's voice is a bit mono, I disagree, It's narrated perfectly for the type of content it is.
Any additional comments?
Knock down the price of this audiobook, I think it's like 40+ dollars in Australia...Lots of parental examples I didn't relate to also, but still not enough to knock a star off.

A fantastic insight!
Easy listening, great content & very engaging topics. A great listen for anyone interesting in understanding human nature and social interaction.
A light hearted way to understand what some may consider a difficult topic to grasp.
I really enjoyed listening to Joe & wish he had more content to listen to!

Great basic intro to the body language topic
This book is very clear and well narrated. you can tell the difference when the actual author does the voice over.
It gives many easy to apply techniques that you can use in your everyday life.

insightful
Very good book to listen to. Easy listening and picked up plenty of very simple seemingly obvious tips. I now have a completely different perspective on not only reading people but how I approach certain situations for a greater return of information than I previously realized.

Power of body language
I listened to a voice over version of another book by joe and hearing his actual voice gives more life to the words.But,apart from that it’s a very comprehensive book and gives the listener a great Broad understanding of non verbal communication.more study is required like micro expressions and written/verbal language analysis if you want to become a pro.
