Summary: "The Routledge Dictionary of Non-Verbal Communication is an authoritative resource for all who are interested in the field of non-verbal communication. It is carefully designed to be user-friendly and accessible, providing clear and well-researched definitions of a very comprehensive list of terms. It is the first dictionary of non-verbal communication, which systematically and scientifically examines the discourse within the field. It celebrates this all-pervading communication channel, examining a very wide selection of non-verbal behaviours, actions and signals to provide the reader with an informed insight on the nonverbal world around them and its messages. Compiled in the form of a dictionary, the book is presented as a series of chapters with alphabetical entries, ranging from attractiveness to zeitgeist. It draws on a very wide range of knowledge, literature and research to include relevant terms from psychology, anthropology, education, sociology, physiology, psychiatry, communication studies, and neuroscience. It will be an essential companion for anyone wishing to understand specific aspects of non-verbal communication, especially those working in the field of non-verbal communication"--
