Read People Deeper in India

Blog-Buddies, it’s rare these days to receive a book review in a major newspaper. Or to see any article that praises Face Reading and Aura Reading.

But that has just happened to me… courtesy of Observer, the largest-circulation daily newspaper in Hindi. Macmillan India has actually published special editions of three of my books, including Read People Deeper. The review follows.Read People Deeper, Rose Rosetree: Macmillan Publishers India Ltd, Pp 276, Rs 295.00 Won’t your life change if you had the uncanny bull’s eye accuracy in judging people’s character?

“What is needed is a deeper perception which has more than one layer,” says the author. For more satisfaction in a relationship, for example, more happiness in social life, more success at work, we need to read deeper.Part I of this book gets us started at reading people all three ways – body language and face reading apart from aura reading.

We can learn by reading this book who is pretending to be a good listener, who is likely to hurt our feelings or cheat on us, who has a drinking problem, who is faithful and many more things.Discussing body language in detail, the book says that it is the study of non-verbal communication which is the best known form of deeper perception. It teaches some ways of interpreting the way a person stands, sits, points, turns, etc., how to read impartially without using any non-verbal communication as an excuse to project our feelings and set our expectations aside.

For instance, the author advises that one should not go ga-ga over our date’s welcoming eyes. It is better to avoid the trap of over-emphasising body language when deeper layers of perception could be useful.

In general, the use of body language is an excellent starting place to read people deeper.

Thirdly, we should not over-simplify. The author gives tips and tricks for every occasion, bonus boxes for uncanny smart games that help to raise our social IQ (intelligence quotient).

She gives 50 ways to read our new date or old flame, advises us to learn to catch micro expressions in an important client at work, in one’s favourite classmate at school or college and even ourselves.

Face reading is best for discovering what a person does with his or her money and it supplements body language research with the 5,000-year old art of reading faces for finding out a person’s character.

The author says that if you use face reading to prevent making mistakes now, you will not have to read body language about problems later.

The book provides some ways to read yourself and your business associate or lover — insights that you can use right now-whether you have been together for years or months, whether you see just a twinkle in each other’s unfamiliar eyes or your situation is more like that of two people who have been “staring at each other like a pair of dead fish,” she says.
