"Paul Ekman is the world's expert on deceit, facial expressions, and reading the face. He has studied the face more rigorously than any other researcher, and his findings include proof that many basic facial expressions are universal among world cultures, that people have 'micro expressions' which last only a 20th of a second, but indicate concealed or underlying emotions, and that you can be trained to increase your ability to detect concealed emotions. This book is a basic manual of Ekman's findings and is of interest to anyone who is concerned with reading the emotions of his or her fellow human beings."

"A detailed analysis of how facial expressions are formed and combined to show emotion.
A great book for actors, counselors, interrogaters, and (I suppose) con artists.
I found the book interesting on a personal level. I sometimes read facial expressions that are at odds with what the person is saying and I was curious to see if I was reading people correctly. Yep."
