Rating: Summary: This book is Super Fun and Interesting! Highly Recommended. Review: Even though I don't intentionally flirt, everyone always tells me that I am a huge flirt. What this book made me realize is that it was all in my body language. I feel that the book helped me get a better understanding of my own body language, as well as that of others. Although, it may seem very elimentary to some readers that reviewed this book, I thought it was a great read!! If a flirt like me can learn a thing or two, it can't be that bad! I highly recommend everyone read this book.
Rating: Summary: Shows how pathetically manipulative adolescents can be Review: I've seen Tracey on Date Patrol and it started me thinking about my body language. I bought superflirt on a whim because it looked like a fun read but it's actually changed my life! I'm now incredibly good at reading other people's body language which helps enormously in all areas of my life, not just romantically. Everyone should have a copy of superflirt and it should be recommended reading in high schools!
Rating: Summary: The reader from Mill Valley complained Review: One of the things that both men and women know is that we communicate very differently verbally. Body language is a LOT harder to fake, and this book is a great starting point on how to read those signals. This covers a lot of material, from how to tell if she is interested in you (or that other guy), deciphering mixed signals, and tips to tell if they're lying to you. All very useful material.As a man, I've found this informative and the way it is presented it is easy to put this knowledge into practical usage. I suspect it would be equally useful to women. And both men and women who may be sending negative body language unintentionally may have seriously life-improving revelations from this book. Good Reading!

Rating: Summary: Elementary Knowledge Review: Reading body-language is a process of evaluating constant change and not just looking for some simple poses as this book is meant to make you believe....If you're interested in body-language, get some scientific books on the subject instead and most of all open your eyes, watch and think!
Rating: Summary: The reader from Mill Valley complained Review: that this book is about manipulation. S(he) is absolutely right about that. What this reader doesn't understand, however, is that any kind of social interaction is manipulation. If you are nice to people, if you show them "serious" feelings, you do that, because you believe that the others will respond to this in a corresponding way, too. But being "nice" in the face of adverse reactions is not moral, it's just plain stupid: if people liked your behaviour, they would be nice to you. If they aren't, i.e. if you don't get what you want, then you are doing the wrong things. And that's where the trouble starts with love (especially for "nice guys" as I had been for far too long a time): being overtly "nice", accommodating, friendly, serious and unintrusive is equivalent to one thing that will hamper all your efforts of ever attracting a romantic partner: it is plain boring! Not to mention that it's a huge lie: nobody is always nice. I do love confident, attractive, intelligent, reliable and successful women. But I love them even more if they haven't lost this wonderful and delighting art of playfulness that can turn every man's knees into jelly. The choice between a "giggling girl", and an uptight adult is very easy to take. Same for men: a relaxed, confident man with a great sense of humor who is still in touch with the "naughty little boy" within himself will always be chosen by the ladies. And they are right about that. One thing this book can teach you is to rediscover this playful child within yourself, which will flirt with and tease everything in sight - until stupid, uptight adults punish it for its love of life and "teach" it to be "serious". The last thing you want to hear is people at your grave saying: "Astounding, s(he) has never been so attractively playful!". This book will help you to prevent this.
Rating: Summary: For those interested in the art, this book delivers. Review: The subject of this book is "flirting", not the "ethics of courtship." How it is, that some reviewer read the book expecting otherwise is beyond me, however those reading the book solely due to an interest in the art of flirting...this book works. It's not formulaic. It avoids step-by-step methodology but instead covers all the elements of flirting and creates awareness. Even with all its gloss, you will get citations to various studies, but this is an art and Cox clearly understands it well. If you're expecting procedure to follow, there is some; however the strength of this book lies in creating better flirting IQ. The overall organization of this book is a bit awkward but I have found my self, as a result of this book, more highly tuned in to cues. For example, I was at the video store the other day and noticed someone noticing me. My normal modus would have been to later consider if she was interested in me, but this time I did the analysis in a couple of seconds and launched in where the opportunity appeared. She was interested.
Before this book, my dating history was rich but totally dependant on perfect situations such as college or target rich side jobs during college (try working in concert halls...you can't believe) but I was never any good at cold stranger scenarios. If that's you as well, then read this a couple of times and you we see what I am talking about.
Rating: Summary: The BIBLE for Flirting Technique! Review: This book is, hands-down, THE best book on flirting technique, sending signals, body language, and anything you could need to know to get teh object of your desire's attention. Guaranteed to educate and enlighten. A MUST READ!
