Mind your body language: Pease

After 19 best-selling books, thousands of speaking engagements, and three bouts with cancer, Australia’s top non-fiction author is still going strong.

According to body language expert Allan Pease, I have a “very Western/American type of attitude”, based on the way I talk. Hardly surprising, as my main pop cultural references come from the Hollywood mill. Indeed, like many of my fellow Gen X-ers and those born after us, my body language is being increasingly homogenised to the American pop culture standard.
