Average customer review:Product Description
Have you ever wished you could peer into someone's mind to find out what he or she is really thinking? Now you can...really. This book is not a collection of recycled ideas about body language. It does not suggest that a woman's hairstyle will give us unprecedented access into her soul, neither does it draw wildly ambiguous generalities about people based on our intuition or gut instinct, nor does it reach conclusions based on how she folds her hands or he ties his shoelaces. The book contains specific, proven psychological techniques that can be applied instantly to any person in just about any situation. Dr Lieberman has demonstrated the ease and accuracy of these techniques on hundreds of television and radio programs.

Customer Reviews
Two distinct Part
Firstly, let it be known that this book is made of two distinct parts;
Part one deals with actively applying techniques which involve interacting with the person to determine their: opinion, confidence, level of interest, stability and the presence of a hidden agenda, in any given situation.
Whilst the underlying psychology in this section that explains human behaviour is spot on, the techniques are sometimes hit and miss and not always practical or reliable.
I see this part of the book as more of a bonus section, which is incredibly interesting but not really necessery to fulfill the promise made by the title.
That said, the second part of the book is the profiling system, which is where the book really shines. This method only requires observation, and from my experience is greatly accurate in determining how a person will act in any situation. SNAP works on determining a person's level of self-esteem as well as the variables of sitution, and then adding these factors together to give an reliable method of determing how that person thinks, and subsequently how they will act.
Probably DJL's best book to date, and certainly worth buying whether you are looking to read and predict people's behaviour, or just enjoy understanding the principles of human nature!
You Can Read Anyone: Never Be Fooled, Lied To, or Taken Advantage of Again
I found this an incredibly interesting read with many insights into people's motivations and behaviours, but despite explaining the theories behind the "method", I felt it failed to explain the method well. An interesting read, but I am no more able to read people now than I did before reading the book.
