An interesting science - physiognomy explores the relationship between the shape of the head and face of a person with his personal qualities. The Russian scientist N.N. Ravensky developed it and went even further - in his book "How to Read a Man, " he tells how one can determine the character and temperament of a person by facial features, gestures, postures and body shape. After reading this book, you can learn a lot about a person and his attitude towards you, just by observing him.
