I Can Read You Like A Book

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I Can Read You Like A Book is an audio book written by Gregory Hartley and Maryann Karinch.

Are you in business, journalism, law enforcement, or medicine? Do you face students in a classroom or criminals in a courtroom? Are you in a relationship or looking for one? Do you have children? Then you need the skills to read them like a book!

I Can Read You Like a Book features a system for scanning and interpreting anyone’s body language, enabling you to figure out what they are really saying or feeling:

Review: Check out someone quickly, from head to toe.
Evaluate: Know what to look for; notice what’s relevant.
Analyze: Spot voluntary versus involuntary movements; factor in gender, context, culture.
Decide: Draw your conclusion.

Step-by-step, you will develop the same skills the best interrogators and detectives use to assess spies, criminals, and witnesses. As part of the process, you will observe some of the most famous people in the world through interrogator Greg Hartley’s eyes.

You’ll discover what emotions these politicians, pundits, and stars are leaking through their body language and facial expressions, and what their answers (or non-answers) are really saying.

I Can Read You Like a Book gives you the fastest, most efficient method to read body language. In any kind of face-to-face competition, first encounters or daily encounters, and even watching the news, you will spot the messages and emotions that people are really sending—whether they know it or not.

As a bonus, you will learn how to use your own face and body to your advantage, whether you’re trying to evade a difficult question, handle a sensitive situation, or just playing poker!

The End of Poverty Audio Book

The End of Poverty, Economic Possibilities for Our Time is an audio book written by Jeffrey Sachs.

Hailed by Time as one of the world’s one-hundred most influential people, Jeffrey Sachs is world-renowned for his work around the globe advising economies in crisis. He has advised a broad range of world leaders and international institutions on the challenges of hyperinflation, disease, post-communist transition, and extreme poverty.

Now, at last, he draws on all he has learned from twenty-five years of work to offer a uniquely informed vision of the keys to economic success in the world today and the steps that are necessary to achieve prosperity for all.

Marrying vivid, passionate storytelling with profound, rigorous analysis, Jeffrey Sachs first lays out a clear conceptual map of the world economy. He explains why, over the past two hundred years, wealth has diverged across the planet and why the poorest nations have so far been unable to improve their lot.

He explains how to arrive at an in-depth diagnosis of a country’s economic challenges and the options it faces. He leads readers along the same learning path he himself followed, telling the stories of his own work in Bolivia, Poland, Russia, India, China, and Africa as a way to bring readers with him to a deep understanding of the challenges faced by developing countries in different parts of the world.

Finally, he offers an integrated set of solutions to the interwoven economic, political, environmental, and social problems that most challenge the world’s poorest societies and, indeed, the world.

Scientific Advertising by Claude Hopkins

Scientific AdvertisingScientific Advertising was written by Claude C. Hopkins in 1923 and has been cited by many advertising and marketing personalities (such as David Ogilvy, Gary Halbert, and Jay Abraham) as a "must-read" book.

Hopkins outlines an advertising approach based on testing and measuring. In this way losses from unsuccessful ads are kept to a safe level, while gains from profitable ads are multiplied. Or, as Hopkins wrote, the advertiser is "playing on the safe side of a hundred to one shot".

Beautiful Boy Audio Book

Beautiful Boy: A Father’s Journey through His Son’s Meth Addiction is an audio book written by David Sheff and narrated by Anthony Heald.

David Sheff’s story is a first: a teenager’s addiction from the parent’s point of view, a real-time chronicle of the shocking descent into substance abuse and the gradual emergence into hope.

Before meth, Sheff’s son, Nic, was a varsity athlete, honor student, and award-winning journalist. After meth, he was a trembling wraith who stole money from his eight-year-old brother and lived on the streets. With haunting candor, Sheff traces the first warning signs, the attempts at rehabilitation, and, at last, the way past addiction. He shows us that, whatever an addict’s fate, the rest of the family must care for one another, too, lest they become addicted to addiction.
