What you do is more important than what you say. Covering touch,
smell, taste, sound, facial expressions, postures and much more, Calero’s book
is a anyone interested in successfully reading people or learning how people
can communicate to hold power. It's human nature to make decisions quickly,
based on subconscious impressions of how a person looks and acts. Police
officers and poker players often look for non-verbal cues in the people they
deal with. They call these cues 'tells' -- and pride themselves on seeing
'tells' where ordinary people don't. Here are practical tips for understanding
the inner motivations of others, and for controlling your own message to the
world. Non-verbal communication isn't about beauty or fashion or external first
impressions. It is the sum total of ones' vocal inflections, facial expressions,
gestures, posture and physical demeanour when communicating with others.
