The volume illustrates how attention to theatrical detail can give insight into Shakespeare&#

Nonverbal communication is part of virtually every human endeavor. It is used to convey power, love, establish rapport, and even regulate the flow of communication. Although nonverbal communication has been studied for over 125 years, we are still quite limited in our ability to apply the research to important real world settings. The goal of this edited volume is to provide a much needed bridge between the research on nonverbal communication and the application of those findings. The book features contributions from some of the leading researchers in the field. These distinguished scholar
