I realize not everyone has as visual a memory and imagination as I do.  Yes, the book could benefit from having pictures of the body language in question.  As an eBook author I understand some of the present challenges with getting good photos in a Kindle book.  If it were made simpler, I imagine the author would be happy to include examples of what he's talking about.  With those, I would expect pretty much everyone would bump up their reviews a star.  Just know that there are no pictures going in, and you'll get a lot out of this book.  Everything the author discusses is explained well.  It's a short book, so it is by no means the final word on body language.  For the vast majority of people, especially people just realizing that they speak as much with posture and movement as they do with words and tonality - this is a great start.  It is a small book with simple, clear steps.  If this were part of a much longer book, these are the pieces I would suggest someone focus on first.  The list of things is small enough as to avoid being overwhelming.  The steps are simple, almost self-evident once you learn them (and to which we are often oblivious until someone points them out and explains them).  That makes them easy to learn and easy to implement - at least relative to some of the deeper, more complex books I've been on the subject.  This is a book you can read today and start practicing tomorrow.  For the average person, there is plenty to work on for weeks, possibly month, and then expect to invest some time in it before it's your new natural.  THEN get a more in-depth book.  For the money, this is a brilliant start.
