Are you tired of guessing what others are really thinking? "Read" people in any situation - in person, on a screen, or in writing - using the new science of psycholinguistics from the New York Times bestselling author and consultant to the FBI, CIA, and U.S. National Security Agency.
What did your boss mean in that email?
Is your mechanic distorting the truth? Whether you are engaged in a routine conversation or a high-stakes negotiation, it is important to understand the hidden meaning of the situation. But with all this interaction taking place on screens - through emails, text messages, or video calls - we are losing the ability to interpret expressions and signals. Additionally, since many are now familiar with the significance of body language, it has become even more difficult to discern someone's true thoughts or intentions.
Renowned psychotherapist David Lieberman, Ph.D., and leading lie detection expert who provides his advice and insights to the FBI and other security agencies, takes "reading people" to an entirely new level. Drawing from the latest research in psycholinguistics - the signals embedded in spoken and written language - Lieberman shows how his groundbreaking methods can be applied to countless everyday situations, such as:
- Detecting messages behind passive language, personal or impersonal descriptions, and the level of detail.
- Determining whether someone's description of any incident is the truth or a figment of their imagination.
- Establishing whether a person is trustworthy or hiding something, be it a prospective employee, someone you met on a dating platform, or a new babysitter.
