This systematic how-to is NOT about the kind of face reading you probably do already-expression reading. Instead, this book takes you for a wild ride into the human face. At every phase of your journey, you'll gain a new kind of insight into people. You'll start reading physical face data, like ear angle and lip proportions, and open up the art of
physiognomy.
With Rosetree as your tour guide, you'll romp across eyebrows and cheeks, delve into noses, and wiggle over to ears. With each chapter, you'll discover things about physical faces you never noticed before... including fascinating things about your own face.
Additional chapters apply face reading to problem solving, sales and communication, improving self-esteem, and better relationships. Of particular interest is a fascinating chapter on facial sexiness, including _macho knobs_ and other unexpected ways that faces reveal information about sex.
Considering that physiognomy has been practiced for thousands of years, it's not surprising that many different systems have been developed. This book uses Face Reading Secrets(r), a loving and insightful system that is easy to learn. Over 100 illustrations by Robin Ludt help readers identify face data on themselves and others.
Author Rose Rosetree has earned a reputation for her lively, humorous style of teaching. It certainly shows in this book, with its hilarious Q&A sections and, scattered throughout the book, references to more than 500 famous faces, from Fred Astaire to the Marquis de Sade, and Dr. Mom to Oprah Winfrey.
Tables list such indispensable information as "The Top Ten Temper Traits" and "Persuasive Mouths."
Three indexes at the end of the book also add to its usefulness:
Index I, Famous Faces, helps you find Rose's comments on your current movie-star crush or most admired historical figure.
Index II, Face Data, enables you to look up whatever part of the face is on your mind-helping you to find the meaning of such things as "peek-a-boo dimples" with lightning speed.
Index III, Behavior, is your resource for finding other topics of interest, from Rosetree's controversial comments about race and the New Betty Crocker to a view of cosmetic surgery that you won't hear from the new-nose pushers.
Incidentally, this book is especially recommended for the nation's estimated 60 million grumpy nose haters... or anyone who could stand falling in love with your face. Because once you've read _The Power of Face Reading_, you'll see how every face is _perfect_ as a reflection of the inner person. Faces will never look the same again.

Finally, here are quotes from Rose Rosetree's hundreds of media interviews on her system of Face Reading Secrets(r):
"It's like she's known you forever... but that's crazy, because you just met. Still, she has described you perfectly, and not just your surface traits." (The Washington Post)
"The two politicians [Governor John Engler and Mayor Terry McKane] were highly skeptical... [but] both men said they found Rosetree's readings uncannily true"(Lansing State Journal)
"I decided to send her a picture of myself... with the caveat that my wife would 'check' her report for accuracy. 'She's got your number,' was my wife's simple response." (The Catholic Standard]
"HOW we communicate is just as important as WHAT we communicate. We need to fine tune what we say according to how the listener hears. Face Reading Secrets come in handy because you are made aware of personal style." (The Topeka Capital-Journal)
"Rosetree's goal is to demolish societal standards which separate so-called good looks from bad. All facial features have meaning and value, she declares, regardless of their popularity or apparent lack of appeal." (Aloha Magazine)
"[County Supervisor] Moore said [Rosetree's] assessment-especially the part about saving money-was accurate.... "I shop at Frugal Fannie's. Does that tell you anything?" (The Fairfax Journal)
"The Chronicle has examined many aspects of the major candidates for mayor of San Francisco during the past few months. Today we present a unique perspective by Rose Rosetree, the originator of a technique called Face Reading Secrets.... The Virginia-based Rosetree turned her expertise on candidates in the S.F. mayoral race, emphasizing that she knew nothing about them in advance." (The San Francisco Chronicle--This editorial-page article resulted in 100 requests for books and readings.)
