Book Reviews of The Power of Body Language

Book Review: Just The Right Moves
Summary: 4 Stars

//The Power of Body Language// tackles the human propensity to judge one another based on subtle unconscious mannerisms and appearance. Reiman reveals body language tips to help people looking for an edge in business or romance. She asserts that "leakage" occurs when our body language betrays our inner thoughts or feelings. This reviewer suggest leakage occurs after a long meeting and gesticulations reveal an inner urge to find a restroom. Nevertheless, the author's recommendations on posture, voice pitch, and the direction to point your feet in groups seem helpful. The book makes it fun to be less introverted. The methods Reiman reveals to detect lies and ways to shroud signals of deceit is a bit troubling, but her revelations on the differences between men and women and how they gather impressions of others were fascinating. Sadly, Reiman's approach feeds on our self-regarding nature and contains a hint of callousness and she offers insufficient warnings about the potential for harm because of incorrect interpretation of body language. Though the book contains some repetition and a few parts felt like a sales pitch, it is an exploration worth taking.
