Can you tell when someone who is actually afraid is trying to look angry? Can you tell when someone is feigning surprise?
With the help of Unmasking the Face, you will be able to improve your recognition of the facial clues to emotion, increase your ability to detect "facial deceit" and develop a keener awareness of the way your own face reflects your emotions. And, to help you better understand your own emotions and those of others, this book describes not only what these emotions look like when expressed on the face, but also what they feel like when you experience them. Dozens of photographs illustrate the concepts and practical exercises help anyone become adept, perceptive readers of the facial expressions of emotions.
