Fascinating book, a treasured reference for anyone interested in body language
I bought this book a while back and found it be one of the most comprehensive of its kind. It has a respected space on my bookshelf. It covers other cultures as well as many human signals that one might not think about, like submissive , cut-off, and displacement signals. There's so many in this book!! Did you know that if a man's face turns red during a confrontation, he's probably less dangerous as a man's face that turns pale, since the blood is being moved to the muscles prepping them for physical action? I didn't read the whole book yet, but I've gotten through many chapters and found it absolutely fascinating! I took an animal behavior course in college and this definitely tops it as it actually has theoretical relevance to humans. Desmond Morris does it again with this brilliant book !

A Great Read!
Desmond Morris is always an interesting writer. I haven't started to tackle this read yet, but if it's anything like 'Manwatching' then it will be very engrossing. I've no complaints about either this item or its seller. Thanks!

Un buen libro, para leer a ratos. Letra muy pequeña y un poco pasada de moda, pero no obstante es interesante
