Back Cover(selected text):
Do you know what nonverbal language is? Even if
you can’t define it, you speak it every day
through your postures, gestures, facial
expressions, and tone of voice, and you must
constantly read these same signals from others.
In fact, nonverbal messages can carry up to 90
percent of the meaning of human interaction and
contribute significantly to social,
academic, and professional success. Yet
even though we recognize the importance of
nonverbal communication, we have generally left
the teaching of this essential language to
chance.Now, parents and teachers can
help children develop nonverbal skills so that
they will be able to communicate more
effectively and to interact with others more
successfully.
