Críticas

Charming and well written ... [a] readable and practical guide to understanding the people around you. (New Scientist)

Sam Gosling is an engaging writer, a brilliant psychologist, and a charming individual, and he must never, ever be allowed inside my office! (Mary Roach, author of Stiff and Bonk)

A must-read for anyone who wants to learn about the cutting edge of psychological research. (Eric Abrahamson, co-author of A Perfect Mess)

Gosling's conclusions are supported by rigorous academic research, but his engaging book is aimed at a popular audience...Snoop's conceit makes for an entertaining tour of how people project their inner selves outward into the world. This may seem like just common sense, but it's not. (The Washington Post)

Snoopology is a science with a right way and wrong way of doing it...I was blithely going about it entirely the wrong way. A fascinating book. (Lucy Kellaway Financial Times 2008-07-14)

Accessibly written, Snoop captures the prevailing mood for decoding symbols (Alastair Mabbott The Glasgow Herald 2009-05-30)

He wades through different stereotypes and professional backgrounds in his quest to profile people and their idiosyncracies, emerging with an entertaining and illuminating offering - even if you wouldn't realyl want to be in his researching shoes. (None credited Sunday Buiness Post 2009-05-24)

Gosling's book might just make you change the way you see your world and the people in it. (N/A Psychologies 2010-01-01)

Reseña del editor

Does what's in your bathroom or on your desk reveal what's on your mind? What's the best way to find out what your partner is really like? For ten years, ingenious academic Sam Gosling has been studying how people project (and protect) their inner selves. Full of cutting-edge research, Snoop will sharpen your perception of others, as well as of yourself. Amazingly, and perhaps alarmingly, Gosling proves that what we own and how we act can inadvertently reveal more about our personalities than even our most intimate conversations.
