I've always been very intrigued by people that could read body language, and would like to try to teach myself how. I work in a 4 star hotel, and feel it would be very useful. Does anyone know of a website or book that goes through the basics of body language?

What an amazing coincidence this is. Just last night I found myself wondering a very similar thing. I've found a couple if sites, although they deal with slightly different things to what I think you want.

If you want more specifically to be able to read body language, it is probably very easy to find it by Googling 'how to read body language'. I did just that, and the very first result I got was http://www.wikihow.com/Read-Body-Language which should itself to the job perfectly, however, in case it doesn't, I'll link a few of the other best ones on the first page of my Google search, in no particular order:

I hope that this helps. If you need more information, just add extra details, and I'll check back at least daily.
