Atlas of Facial Expression: An Account of Facial Expression for Artists, Actors and Writers

Author of the acclaimed Atlas of Human Anatomy for the Artist, Stephen Rogers Peck has greatly expanded the book's last section to provide this detailed study of facial anatomy. "From the sardonic smile to the lustful leer, from woolgathering to screaming, from nausea to cold sweat, the book covers in nontechnical language, with wit and insight, the elements that go into conveying each human expression, noting the position of the eyebrows, mouth, jaw muscles, and nostrils."--the publisher. An invaluable reference for anyone interested in the structure behind the face's expression of emotion.
