However youth offenders consist of two core groups; life present offenders (people who are going to continue offending regardless), and people who given the right conditions will return to become mainstream citizens.

Body Language Decoded

Take a journey deep inside the intriguing world of non-verbal communication.

On every continent and in every ethnicity, expressions of emotions such as happiness, surprise, anger and fear are universally recognized. These expressions are hard-wired into our facial muscles for reasons that have everything to do with human evolution and survival of the species.

Body Language Decoded features interviews with some of the world’s leading experts in human communication.
