Liespotting: Proven Techniques to Detect Deception Audiobook

" blech, what seems like a great idea for a book, becomes a poorly sourced coporate rant on negotiation. i read this after watching meyer's ted.com talk, which was kinda one long plug for her book. anyway i got the book from the library, and was subsequently dissappointed. anyone know of a good body language/ face reading book that's out there. you know one written with rigor, and focused upon the science of reading body language instead of ways you can use it to make money for your business. i mean i understand her angle and trying to find an audience for her book, but still try and be more rigorous, even the layout was like one of those Dummies books. alas. "

" Very interesting research, good examples, & a quick read! "

" Overall I liked it, although it seemed oddly pointed towards business environments. It especially seemed aimed at upper management and entrepreneurs - which is fine, it's just that I would think that liespotting is useful in pretty much any context for people from all walks of life. "

" Was OK... The deception techniques were interesting but mostly it was dragging because too much of it pertained to a business world that I was unfamiliar with and had no future in anyways. But the techniques have been noted and documented. However I doubt I'll be able to remember half of them. "

" An excellent overview on detecting when there is "more to the story". Planning to use these new found skills in sales and negotiations. "

" It's a very academic read, however the information is interesting. "

" Succinct insight into the fascinating study of lie detection that focuses on basic techniques that are well-sourced and referenced throughout the book. I recommend watching Meyer's TED talk as well, which is what pointed me towards this work. "

" Great book if you want to improve your skills at: 1) spotting lies; 2) knowing why people lie and how often (they lie A LOT!); 3) eliciting truth from people; 4) building a brain trust of trustworthy people around you - highly recommended, easy-to-read, well-written, and very informative. "

" Not groundbreaking. Somewhat applicable to the business world. If I read another book on deception it will be written by an interrogator. "

" A slow start into a manual on navigating human falsehoods I would surely read twice "

" Lots of tips on how to spot deception. Potentially incredibly useful. "

" I picked up this book because I ran into her TED talk and was intrigued. It was interesting and I notice a lot more now. "

" Much more for the business/manager type person, but some helpful advice nonetheless. "

" Not the best book on deception detection I have ever read, but definately one of the better examples. This book also shows an interesting view of corporate deception and the role that plays. "

" Love the concept, and was intrigued after seeing the TED.com talk. Too much on negotiations and business, kinda boring. "

" Very little info, vastly under my expectation "

" I loved this book. Gave me some wonderful insights on body language and deception. I would recommend this book to anyone that feels they need more insight into people. "

" The book is heavily geared toward the business world, but there is a ton of useful information that can be applied to any situation. "

" Interesting but not a whole lot of new information. Sort of a compilation of several other techniques... "

" Good read, but I wasn't expecting it to be so much about business. "
