What is the ultimate force that holds a marriage together? Love? Sex? Children? Regular tropical vacations? The answer is both very simple and very complex: communication. Communication may sound like a very dry word. After all, it’s just the transfer of information from one person to another. However, communication is the foundation of everything that makes a marriage happy, including love, good sex, and good parenting. Good communication creates an environment of safety, love, and respect.

Being able to talk does not imply that you would also be able to communicate well. There is one popular language you've probably not given much thought to and thus have not learned. It's called body language. Human beings communicate in more ways than the spoken and written form with which you are familiar. This audiobook reveals the ways by which you can analyze people.

Good and Bad
There were some good tips and some outdated tips. I don’t think this book really helped me with my difficult coworker, but it did go over some interesting ways to deal with people. I personally don’t think touching a coworker is ever appropriate and the author suggest touching hands, arms, or shoulders when a person is upset. I personally would not like anyone touching me and it would make me feel on edge if they did. There were good suggestions on how to stop annoying people from talking to you. There wasn’t anything about how to deal with coworkers who aren’t team players, who don’t hold their weight at work, or who constantly have errors is their work. Obviously the author would say take these concerns to your boss, but not all bosses are responsive to complaints.
