What you say is often far less important than how you say it. One of the harbingers of success is understanding how nonverbal cues such as body language, dress, & demeanor affect how you are perceived & understood. In this book Navarro, one of the leaders in nonverbal behaviours, demonstrates how to modify your subconscious statements to your greatest advantage & also read what other people are 'saying' nonverbally. These skills will increase your ability to accurately assess moods, decode behaviors, anticipate problems, avoid hidden pitfalls, influence negotiations, & understand the secret motivations of those around you.
