Book Description
If the viral Buzzfeed-style personality quizzes are any indication, we are collectively obsessed with the idea of defining and knowing ourselves and our unique place in the world. But what we're finding is this: knowing which Harry Potter character you are is easy, but actually knowing yourself isn't as simple as just checking a few boxes on an online quiz. For readers who long to dig deeper into what makes them uniquely them (and why that matters), popular blogger Anne Bogel has done the hard part--collecting, exploring, and explaining the most popular personality frameworks, such as Myers-Briggs, StrengthsFinder, Enneagram, and others. She explains to readers the life-changing insights that can be gained from each and shares specific, practical real-life applications across all facets of life, including love and marriage, productivity, parenting, the workplace, and spiritual life. In her friendly, relatable style, Bogel shares engaging personal stories that show firsthand how understanding personality can revolutionize the way we live, love, work, and pray.

Book Description
'Laurence Alison is one of my academic heroes. He does what every writer longs to do. He makes the difficult clear - without losing his rigour.' Malcolm Gladwell 'They are quietly revolutionising the study and practice of interrogation... Their findings are changing the way law enforcement and security agencies approach the delicate and vital task of gathering human intelligence.' Guardian Get what you want from even the most difficult characters All of us have to deal with difficult people. Whether we're asking our neighbour to move a fence or our boss for a pay rise, we can struggle to avoid arguments and get what we want. Laurence and Emily Alison are world leaders in forensic psychology, and they specialise in the most difficult interactions imaginable: criminal interrogations. They advise and train the police, security agencies, the FBI and the CIA on how to deal with extremely dangerous suspects when the stakes are high. After 30 years' work - and unprecedented access to 2,000 hours of terrorist interrogations - they have developed a ground-breaking model of interpersonal communication. This deceptively simple approach to handling any encounter works as well for teenagers as it does for terrorists. Now it's time to share it with the world. Rapport reveals that every interaction follows four styles: Control (the lion), Capitulate (the mouse), Confront (the Tyrannosaur) and Co-operate (the monkey). As soon as you understand these styles and your own goals you can shape any conversation at will. And you'll be closer to the real secret: how to create instant rapport.

Book Description
How to Analyze People Reading People, Body Language Recognizing Emotions & Facial Expressions Learning how to analyze people is a very worthwhile and important pursuit that most people should undertake. When you know how to read people, an entirely new world of possibilities opens up before you. Human psychology is a subject that is somewhat shrouded in mystery, but understanding a few simple facts about body language will greatly improve your skills in reading people. Here are some key points you will learn in this guide: Why does Body Language Matter? For someone who is new to this subject, it might be a mystery why body language matters very much. After all, we developed speech in order to communicate, and that's all we need, right? Actually, speech is only a tiny part of communication, and most of what we say is done nonverbally. Someone can say one thing, for example, in a tone that communicates something entirely different. Learning the difference is of crucial importance in life. Before you Analyze People: It's exciting to start learning how to read people's cues, but there are some things you need to know about before diving in. For example, are the conditions right for reading someone? Do you have any biases that may color what you are observing and interpreting? Have you established a baseline for that person's personality? If you don't know what this means, don't worry, you will learn in chapter three. All of these are worth considering before you start trying to analyze the people in your life. Foolproof Techniques for Reading Body Language: After you have gone through the motions of preparing to read someone, how do you actually do it? What do certain movements of the eyes, legs, and arms mean? What does it mean if someone is blinking a lot? Every motion means something different. When someone Likes you or is Lying: Who hasn't wanted to be able to know when someone they like returns their feelings? Who hasn't been curious about being able to tell when someone is lying or being truthful? Taking it upon yourself to learn how to analyze people and read their nonverbal cues will help you in this area, as well as in many others. In the last couple of chapters of this book, you will get a quick and simple guide to being able to tell when someone thinks favorably of you, as well as signs that they are not being honest with you. Other topics we will cover in this book: Body Language Facial Expressions Hand Gestures Reading People Reading Minds Body expression People Reading How to Read People Recognizing Emotions How to Analyze People Mind Reading Analyzing people Whether you are trying to read a stranger or someone you know, the tips and techniques in this guide will help you along the way. If you've ever wanted to know when someone likes you, or know how to spot someone telling lies using simple methods of reading facial expressions and nonverbal cues, this book is for you. The sooner you learn this valuable information, the sooner you can put it into practice and start benefiting from it. Once you learn these techniques, the cues will start to be obvious to you, and you will find it much less common that you're mystified by the actions or facial expressions of people around you.
