Peoplewatching: The Desmond Morris Guide to Body Language

by Desmond Morris (Author)

Synopsis

Peoplewatching is the culmination of a career of watching people - their behaviour and habits, their personalities and their quirks. Desmond Morris shows us how people, consciously and unconsciously, signal their attitudes, desires and innermost feelings with their bodies and actions, often more powerfully than with their words.
