Summary: It is what it is - a grandfather of the era
Review: This is a grandfather of body language books. It is one of the few that kicked off the discussion of body language and non-verbal commincation. What some of the reviewers are looking for is a book of poker tells or a college text book. Communications was my major in college so I have read dozen's of "in-depth" books on this matter. The book is short and the content is brief but well written. I say it is a great read for anyone interested in the subject. Take it for what it is and enjoy.

Summary: not what you're looking for
Review: You probably want a guide to body language. This isn't it. This is an attempt to define the study of body language as a science. It offers very few concrete examples of body language because that isn't its point.There are many other books on body language out there that probably serve your purpose better. However, if you're interested in the philosophy of science, and the margins of the social sciences, then this book is a primary source from the 1970s.
