Summary: Not a bad book at all
Comment: One of the interesting things about science is how often its finding are counter-intuitive and are surprizes. You would think that most people are pretty good at reading facial expressions, and that some people like professional poker players are more than pretty good. In fact I once saw a book published for the benefit of the silent movie actors which had examples of facial expressions to be used to convey certain emotions on the screen: like a wide open mouth to signify surprize or amazement. It turns out that in real life as we know it such is not the case and that we are not so accurate as to our assessments of others. Sometimes a person with a wry smile is just a person with a wry smile. That what this book is about. It will help you learn that you still have something to learn. This is however a book for professionals in the psychology biz, since it recounts a lot of data. But it would be a useful tool for anyone interested in science as a whole, and anyone who like me is always interested in finding out that his entrenched preconceptions are not so well trenched as he thinks. That the footings are weak.
