Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Really good for the novice!
Review: Although not a definative guide or a piece of work that has exhausted the subject, Lin gives the reader a good foundation in the philosophy and workings of face and body reading.

I can honestly say that I enjoyed reading this book even though at times the diagrams were a bit confusing! The information and style that this book is written in is very easy to read and comprehend.

Recommended with reservation.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very Interesting and enlightening
Review: I read and collect books on this subject. This book is one of my favorites. I find many facets of Chinese culture interesting and thought provoking. Inside this book I have found other subjects that I have enjoyed reading up on and exploring. It is well written and very interesting and laid out well. And I have learned much more about myself than I would have guessed when I started reading this book.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Interesting but unimpressive.
Review: Nothing new here and I don't think there is any substantial research to back up the concept. It is mostly wishful thinking, creative fiction and hokem. Pretty much a waste of time.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A little too tough to decipher...
Review: This is a very good book if you are interested in face reading. It holds a lot of interesting information and detail about the face, eyes, nose, eyebrows, lips, etc. The reason why I didn't rate it as 5 stars is because the illustrations look the same to me and its really hard to tell the difference between certain shapes. More realistic pictures instead of drawings would do the trick.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A little too tough to decipher...
Review: This is the second such book I have bought on the subject of Face Reading. The illustrations were difficult to follow and it's tough for the reader to develop a "user friendly" guide after completion. Rather, I suggest that you try "The Naked Face" by Young, which was far easier to interpret. Sure, if one were a practioner for 2 decades, then they could decipher the illustrations, but the learning curve was rather steep. Give the other book a glance, that's my opinion.
