How to Read a Person Like a Book

How to Read a Person Like a BookWhether we are conscious of it or not, in any conversation there are actually two languages being spoken. One is the verbal communication we are all familiar with, but the other--and maybe more important, is the more subtle collection of gestures, expressions, and movements that constitute body language. In this illustrated guide, authors Gerard Nierenberg and Henry Calero decode this largely unexplored form of expression--revealing how to look past words to determine what’s really being said.

Reading Toni MorrisonReading Toni Morrison

One of the few authors to attain both commercial success and literary acclaim, Toni Morrison, a longstanding member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, is widely read by high school students and general readers. Her books have been adapted into highly extolled films such as Beloved, largely because, even when set in the past, they grapple with issues and emotions relevant to contemporary society.
