The Book of Tells (Peter Collett)[unlocked].pdf

AS SEEN ON TV

F ell is an action that tells you what

Did you know that the way you stand, how you position your elbows,

move your feet or hands, says a lot about how dominant or submissive

you feel? Or that when you're trying to hide your feelings, your sexual

attitudes are betrayed by your eyes and mouth? Even the way you smile -

and the facial muscles you use - shows whether you are genuinely happy

or faking it! These are Tells, and they are highly revealing. In fact,

wherever you are and whatever you're doing, your movements

provide important clues about your state of mind.

In The Book of Tells Peter Collett, resident psychologist on Channel 4's

Big Brother series, introduces us to the fascinating concept of Tells,

showing how they work, where they come from and how to identify

and interpret them. While teaching you to read the motives and actions

of other people, this invaluable resource also helps you to focus on the

messages that you unwittingly send, and the impact that these might

have on those around you.

Comprehensive, accessible and fun to use, The Book of Tells offers a

new, unifying vocabulary for understanding human communication -

and a unique opportunity to read others and yourself.

'It is quite an eye-opener to discover what a devious

game we humans play with our unwitting

messages of communication'
