They approach her in airports, on ski slopes and in long lines after her talks, waiting to hug her or to thank her. After her 2010 study on the effects of "power poses" led to a best-selling book and a popular TED Talk — the second-most- viewed in the institution's history — people began sharing with Cuddy how bold body language helped them win jobs, confront bullies or seize power. Then came a sea change in her field, and a new type of scrutiny for her work. In this week's cover story, Susan Dominus writes about how Cuddy went from near-universal acclaim to the face of a painful reckoning in a discipline struggling to adjust to new standards of evidence. Elsewhere in the magazine, Jason Zengerle writes about Rex Tillerson's State Department adrift in a world where a president can unravel international relationships one tweet at a time. Michael Erard writes about Unicode's quiet mission to bring the world's neglected languages into the digital sphere — and what happened to it when emoji came along. And Dan Kois profiles Taika Waititi, the eccentric indie filmmaker at the helm of the superhero blockbuster "Thor: Ragnarok."
