Synopsis
This systematic how-to is NOT about the kind of face reading you probably do already expression reading. Instead, this book takes you for a wild ride into the human face. At every phase of your journey, you ll gain a new kind of insight into people. You ll start reading physical face data, like ear angle and lip proportions, and open up the art of physiognomy.
With Rosetree as your tour guide, you ll romp across eyebrows and cheeks, delve into noses, and wiggle over to ears. With each chapter, you ll discover things about physical faces you never noticed before... including fascinating things about your own face.
Additional chapters apply face reading to problem solving, sales and communication, improving self-esteem, and better relationships. Of particular interest is a fascinating chapter on facial sexiness, including macho knobs and other unexpected ways that faces reveal information about sex.
Considering that physiognomy has been practiced for thousands of years, it s not surprising that many different systems have been developed. This book uses Face Reading Secrets®, a loving and insightful system that is easy to learn. Over 100 illustrations by Robin Ludt help readers identify face data on themselves and others.
Author Rose Rosetree has earned a reputation for her lively, humorous style of teaching. It certainly shows in this book, with its hilarious Q&A sections and, scattered throughout the book, references to more than 500 famous faces, from Fred Astaire to the Marquis de Sade, and Dr. Mom to Oprah Winfrey.
Tables list such indispensable information as The Top Ten Temper Traits and Persuasive Mouths.
Three indexes at the end of the book also add to its usefulness:
Index I, Famous Faces, helps you find Rose s comments on your current movie-star crush or most admired historical figure.
Index II, Face Data, enables you to look up whatever part of the face is on your mind helping you to find the meaning of such things as peek-a-boo dimples with lightning speed.
Index III, Behavior, is your resource for finding other topics of interest, from Rosetree s controversial comments about race and the New Betty Crocker to a view of cosmetic surgery that you won t hear from the new-nose pushers.
Incidentally, this book is especially recommended for the nation s estimated 60 million grumpy nose haters... or anyone who could stand falling in love with your face. Because once you ve read The Power of Face Reading, you ll see how every face is perfect as a reflection of the inner person. Faces will never look the same again.
