In The Nonverbal Advantage, Carol Kinsey Goman combines the latest research and her twenty-five years of practical experience as a consultant, coach, and therapist to offer a fun and practical guide to understanding what we and the people we work with are saying without speaking.

She includes dozens of simple and enlightening exercises readers can practice on and off the job to gain control over the message their body is sending.
