Paperback / Hardback

People are not that complex – once you know how they function at their most basic levels of motivation, they are like reading a book!

The Science of Reading People isn’t a book that tells you about crossed aims, eye contact, and eyerolls. This is about deep behavioural psychology, how to recognise signs of what people are thinking and feeling, and how it affects all our actions and behaviours.

Is it possible to understand someone from observing them? Yes, if you know what you are looking at and what you are looking for.

Learn the telltale signs of a person’s emotions, even if they want to hide them:

  • 1O factors that prevent us from perceiving someone, and how to prevent them
  • Actionable exercises for taking people’s perspectives and stepping outside of your own head
  • Four personality types and how to categorize people in quick and easy ways
  • Understanding the four functions of behaviour and how to spot them
  • Listening for specific word and linguistic choices
