Best Book on Face Reading
This was the first book by Rose Rosetree that I read and it is the very best book on Face reading that I have ever read. Rose's other books on face reading are also worth finding and reading: Reading People Deeper, and, now out of print: Wrinkles are God's Makeup. Roses method of teaching Face Reading breaks the face into sections and parts, like eyebrows, with wonderful illustrations that make it easy to learn/study. I would learn one facet of a face and then spend a couple of days practicing looking at just that part in all the faces I looked at. What is really fun is to then engage the person conversationally and check out what you just learned to see if it matches. It's a great conversation starter. But, mostly, it is helpful in situations when you need to assess someone for some reason - personal or professional.After getting this book you can go on Rose's Blog on the web and find where she has read public figures to learn even more in depth nuances of face reading. Of course, this is only one of Rose's many skills that she teaches and shares on her blog, but I'll leave that for you to find out. Go to [...] and see more.Get this book and learn a whole new skill that will serve you well in all facets of your life!

Very good book to learn Face Reading/Physignomy
Initially when I looked through the book I was disapointed because there are no photos and the illustraions are not very real. But when I started reading it I couldn't put it down.It is written very well. It focuses on each element with the different characteristics, when explaining each one she give examples of famous people, which I found very useful as other books that I read just list the characteristics of each element and shape and I found it hard to remember. This book makes is much easier for me to remember.The best illustrations I saw were in the book "Amazing Face Reading" by Mac Fulfer J.D. so I definetly combine these 2 books when I am learning the art of face reading.Some other books I found useful are "Face Reading: How to Know Anyone at a Glance" by Barbara Roberts and Joey Yap's 2 books on Face Reading which are a little more advanced and include the Chinese art of Face Reading. So it gives another perspective.I do recommend this book as well as Rose's other book "Read People Deeper".

No thanks
Got it for fun turns out it is in accurate. I just know how to point out details of someone’s face a little better than before.

Fascinating
Wow. Powerful information here. Utterly fascinating, and fun. Don't be surprised if you find yourself suddenly opening up with compassion.... for what you read on your own face, and other's.

Good information for living in the real world
Author is dead-on accurate, as I have tested her stuff on many faces already. Worth the read, even though the book is long-winded. She could have given the necessary information in half as many pages. I also think there is more info out there that she could have included in the book. For example, regarding teeth, she only talks about the two front teeth & the canines. She fails to cover the meaning of crooked vs. straight teeth. (I have been told that crooked bottom teeth means that a person has trouble making decisions.)

If you like drama this book is for you
If you like drama this book is for you.I prefer give me the bottom line ,I feel this book can be reduced to half its size with the same information. Also the are no real pictures and few drawings.

A good reference book for face reading, but it is basically the same book as the 1st edition. :-(
This is one of the best books I have read on face reading. Although, I wish Rose would have a quick reference section in the back of the book stating the raw basics of each part of the face and what it means. Reading the book is like reading through a face reading workshop.

Much improved
I study mathematics and was interested to find any way at all to deal more smoothly with people of all sorts. While I am generally quiet and have good intentions, I have not managed to collect quite enough friends so far, and I'd like a smoother path in dealing with humanity. So, I started studying this a long time ago.I read the first edition of the book, and tried to be open minded about it. After quite a long time, I asked whether this information is actually true or not. Are people with flaring nostrils big spenders? That wasn't so obvious. I knew a couple of sprinters who were quite frugal financially, but they certainly left everything they had on the track. So, they were not just big spenders, but habitual big spenders. So, it might be necessary to see things a little metaphorically or in a little different light, but the idea itself seems to hold up. That is, all the ideas seem to hold up, and they hold up in a way that is not true at all in the classical Chinese books on physiognomy. So, I was surprised to find that this may have some sense of truth about it. Who knew? Still, if we call ourselves at all scientific, don't we have to try ideas? If we try it out and it works, should we say "pooh pooh" because we didn't expect it to be true? If we were like that, we could never learn something really new. So, that's that. It is what it is---like it or not.I hated the first edition of the book because it was like reading a dictionary. More frustrating, it was a dictionary that I had no systematic way to expand. So suppose I see some interesting detail in the structure of a new face, and I don't find it in the dictionary. What will I do? I was so interested that I took the mentoring course from Mrs. Rosetree. In the course I learned a lot, but was wholly frustrated. I didn't feel I learned face reading well at all, and I dropped out in as graceful a way as possible. In saying this, I am not implicitly criticizing Ms. Rosetree. I didn't say she taught poorly. I said I wasn't learning well---for whatever reason. This doesn't attribute blame.The new book is improved from my point of view because it no longer reads (to me) like a dictionary---a dictionary that I can't extend myself. Here I am able to see organizing principles better, and I can make connections a little better. It is easier for me to keep it all in mind, and it might become possible for me to make some inferences when I see new features I hadn't noticed before. So, this appears to be much better.I have seen on the web and in the bookstores other authors who claim that they have the greatest face reading approach or that they are the true masters. That is rubbish.Think of pianists. If a promising young person plays a very complicated piece at his high school recital (say, the Cascade Etude), he might play it very well. However, he cannot possibly play it better than a player of similar talent coming from a master or doctoral performance program. Why is that? The high school student has an ascending mastery. This is the hardest thing he ever played, and he's doing all he can to keep up with it. The graduate student plays it from a sense of descending mastery. He's done this and done it in harder contexts---by a long shot---and he's doing something less difficult.Mrs. Rosetree writes about face reading as a descending mastery. Her "stuff" is more sophisticated, and this is a very useful consequence that anyone can eventually learn (even me). Perhaps we could say it is like one of the courses spinning off from Hogwart's school of magic and wizardry. It's something the wizards found but were able to teach to muggles, too. As a muggle, that's good. However, if someone else thinks he can be the expert in the field---he better be a wizard. Mrs. Rosetree is actually the real thing.As for me, it isn't all as I expected (what a shock!!!!). Actually, lots of people wouldn't be suitable as a close friend for me. Part of the wisdom is to notice earlier that someone is really on a different path and let them just be who they are. Over time, there may be a few going my way, too. Who knows? There aren't lots of them.Mrs. Rosetree seems to have fielded a coherent enough system to establish her claim that the structure of the face is meaningful in the ways she describes. Her correlations do seem to work. Respectfully, if the face carries this meaning, then the whole body should carry analogous meanings. Now, we usually see only people's faces and hands. But, it should be the case that the whole body is meaningful in ways analogous. I would like to suggest that Mrs. Rosetree or one of her students might elucidate these extended meanings.

Practical, easy to learn with lots of wisdom packed in
Rose's update on "The Power of Face Reading" is even easier to read and learn from. I bought the kindle version which had full colour photos of real life people to examine face data which was very useful.I've learned more about myself from reading my nose, my eyebrows and my cheeks, which has helped me to be more effective at work and my studies. What I've learned has also helped me understand certain colleagues more (who don't give anything away -small lip fullness!)There's also lots of practical wisdom about life and relationships that Rose teaches so effectively.

Full of detailed information!
Haven't quite finished the book but very impressed with the amount of information. I read You Can Read a Face Like a Book by N. Tickle a month ago, which was a good read but Rose Rosetree gives you a lot more info. Naomi Tickle covered the basics, which left me with a thirst for more information on the topic of face reading and Rose Rosetree has quenched this thirst! Diagrams and descriptions of traits are also much better than Naomi's. So I've really enjoyed reading this book although the Q & A parts I find are just a waste of time so tend to skip them.If you are interested in Face Reading, this book is a must! Gives you more info than I've found anywhere on the internet.

a good interesting book, for the face profiler.
if you like books on profiling, you could add this one to your collection. everything I learnt about profiling, I taught myself. we, ( I and my family) have lived in every trouble spot, up here in Newcastle upon Tyne. we presently live in the "byker wall" man...what a place? we have seen knives pulled, etc. I can look after myself, but up here you have too have eyes, up your "jako" (Geordie for Arse) for the un-educated out there! on the Geordie dialect.....so contrary to popular belief, we are educated up here! well some of us, any way. the book is interesting, considering the F.B.I. only get six weeks basic training, yet give profiling, some kind of secret hidden art? only for the authorities?? of which I find offensive. the authorities tell us, the public....there is noooo, you and us? yeah! right guys...ask a police officer what he is doing? standing on the corner of the street? the reply is in the"negative" ending in "off" ask a f.b.i. profiler, how he learnt his profiling skills? ........he will reply, only after years of hard work, and obtaining a degree!!! "what!.... yeah, right....after asking loads of criminals why, they kill? what they were thinking? before they killed...and after! why did they steal women's under shreddies off of the clothes line?? why did you watch your victims? before you killed them??yeah! it takes a degree, to think of that one.....? seriously, if your observant, and listen to people, you will pick things up anyway. but this book, will give you a bit more to observe. I'm a "spirit -medium" I was asked by an ex-detective to locate a body, buried way back in the 1960's after studying the info he gave me, i.e. maps photo's etc. I gave him a location? we checked, the area, there was something there, the detective got scared?? gave everything I had drawn, wrote down for him, to the Manchester cold case team....guess what! the area was totally compromised...(dug up!) what-ever body was there? was removed. and now the f.b.i. now use the Yorkshire moors, for their training? any F.B.I. profiler reading this...."can you do this? locate dead bodies? no disrespect to you, but you will not be able to do this...? so please have some respect for us ordinary people.. "I thank you"

I was a bit sad when first 10 or 20 pages was why it ...
Gestures and body language is the deal, but the size or shape of your nose or lips is a permanent feature. It can't describe your character, which changes during the years. I was a bit sad when first 10 or 20 pages was why it is important to believe it and to be happy that you bought this book. 1/5
