Finally I will discuss why you should read this book. I have found the book to open my mind up. It has challenged and stimulated my thinking and I have built a better understanding of nonverbal communication which has helped with unfamiliar situations that I have come across.
The book I read was designed as an introduction and a key for unlocking the studies of recent findings on the topic. The central aim of the book is to show us that the field of non-verbal communication is fast growing, rapidly growing and that it has a great affect on human beings, yet it promises practical applications to our daily lives. Through recent findings of sociologists and psychologists the text aims towards approaches as to why things happen the way they do from how nonverbal cues are interpreted and communicated. We give off cues about our feelings or intentions and sometimes people who should see them don't. Other times cues are sent out to others without even realizing it. The central aim of the text is us. Anyone person communicating to another person can relate to nonverbal communication. One psychologist suggests, "You cannot not communicate." No matter what you do, you are sending the other person some message. Even silence and inactivity may tell your partner that you are depressed, angry, annoyed or fearful. The text informs us as to how people can misinterpret situations. .
Nonverbal communication is such an important aspect to communication. You may be wondering why most people are not aware of it or don't seem to pay any attention to it. Most people have not been taught the actions of communication as clearly as words communicate. You may have heard before, "If you don't look someone in the eye as you speak, that the person might not believe you or that you should stand up straight and walk with pride or that you might even be judged by what you are wearing." These just mean to pay attention to nonverbal signs because they actually are very important and can help everyone with their daily lives.
