Non Verbal Persuasion - What's the Book That Tells You Everything?

A comprehensive understanding of non-verbal communication begins with foundational texts like 'Body Language' by Julius Fast and 'The Definitive Guide to Body Language' by Barbara and Allan Pease.

Effective persuasion hinges on recognizing non-verbal metrics, with about 90% of communication being non-verbal. Key indicators include monitoring blink rates; a decrease indicates increased interest, while an increase suggests stress or discomfort.

Slower shutter speeds indicate reduced fear, enhancing communication effectiveness and engagement.
