Trade Review'This lovely book is clearly written by someone who has been immersed in reading faces all her life and who spent twenty years before writing it, studying further from Chinese medical and other texts and from family members. It clearly lays out all the theories and principles of face reading, mostly relating to understanding personality ( but also in a final chapter to medical diagnosis) and illustrates these with numerous black and white and colour photographs. This is simply the best book on face reading that we have seen, and if the subject fascinates you, you just have to get it.' Peter Deadman, Journal of Chinese Medicine
