Default Body language

I am hoping you guys can recommend me an excellent book on body language. i have been wanting to study it more in depth for a while, but i dont know which book to get. all the ones ive seen in the book stores just dont seem very good (badly illustrated or too obvious), and i dont want to order from amazon without knowing it will be what i want. id like one with photos preferrably or lifelike drawings, not silly ones. basically so you can easily see what they are referring to. i have read one which was very basic so a bit more in depth would be good.

basically just tell me what the best source of information out there is on it and if you know of any websites that would be great too. thank you.

This isn't strictly a body language book, but it does address some of what you're looking for. This was recommended to me by my sister, although I have yet to read it.

Amazon.com: Reading People: How to Understand People and Predict Their Behavior- -Anytime, Anyplace: Books: Jo-Ellan Dimitrius,Mark C. Mazzarella

It was written by a specialist in jury selection. The author has worked on a number of high-profile cases, including the infamous OJ Simpson trial. It talks about using subtle behavioral clues to evaluate how people will react to certain situations.

The one by Barbara and Allan Pease is really good. The fact that it has lots of illustrations only makes understanding and see it more easily.

Well after all body language is about displaying it right? Get that book!
