About this ebook

This book explores a number of important themes within body language discourse. The authors analyse the role of hands, touch, facial expression, misconceptions, and fallacious arguments in body language training. Other issues addressed include body language between humans and machines, lie detection, reactance and body language and thermography of the face. The authors work to determine various potentials of body language, and assess some areas of body language and role of body language in everyday life. They also discuss new perspectives and future directions in body language studies.
