"To truly understand a person is not only to look into their eyes, but to read the lines of the face, the posture of the body, and the hidden language of human nature."

This groundbreaking book is inspired by Erzurumlu İbrahim Hakkı's classical masterpiece Marifetname. More than a historical reference, it unites Western physiognomy, the Chinese art of face reading (Mian Xiang), modern body language research, and essential insights from personality psychology.

In this unique guide, you will learn how to:

  • Decode character and temperament through facial features,
  • Understand personality via hair, eyes, lips, chin, and body shape,
  • Apply body language techniques—gestures, expressions, posture, tone of voice,
  • Explore cross-cultural traditions of face reading and physiognomy,
  • Use practical observation protocols to improve daily communication, relationships, and self-awareness.
  • Blending cultural wisdom with scientific perspectives, this is the most comprehensive guide to reading people—a resource for anyone seeking to understand others more deeply and navigate human connections with clarity and confidence.

    Whether you are interested in psychology, personal growth, or cultural knowledge, this book will transform the way you see and interpret people.
