Hi.. I have read several books and websites on body language.. But I
want something much more advanced than just a couple of tricks to tell
if the other persons agrees with me or not.! Can you give a source or
sources, may it be websites, books, classes or whatever.. I want to
learn as much as I can without studying it as a profession.! I would
like to be an expert though:) but a bit late now.. Anyway I appreciate
anything you can give me..

Peoplewatching: the Desmond Morris Guide to Body Language by Desmond
Morris (Paperback - Jun 14 2002)

Now famous for her role in the O.J. Simpson murder trial, Dimitrius
shares the people-reading techniques she developed over 15 years as a
jury consultant. In so doing, she provides a wealth of tips and
strategies for ferreting out people's real viewpoints, motives and
character traits. Claiming that "reading people is neither a science
nor an innate gift," Dimitrius advocates sharpening and fine-tuning
powers of observation and deduction.
