"The Definitive Book of Handwriting Analysis is a must for all
serious students of graphology." --Iris Hatfield, Professional
Graphologist, HuVista International
The complete guide to graphology from the winner of
Flandrin-Michon AHAF President's Lifetime Achievement Award by the
American Handwriting Analysis Foundation
The ability to write by hand is a pinnacle of human achievement. As a
form of self-expression, handwriting reflects a person's thoughts about
the self and reveals aspects of a person's personality.
Written in a step-by-step fashion, The Definitive Book of Handwriting
Analysis begins with the history of the field and then teaches you how
to analyze any handwriting, starting with objective criteria, including
variables such as organization, speed, size, shape, slant, and symbolic
features. Then you learn how to combine these variables to create a full
personality profile.
There are more than 100 handwriting samples, including those from Paul
Newman, Bill Clinton, Marlon Brando, Donald Trump, Sigmund and Anna
Freud, Thomas Edison, Osama bin Laden, Jacqueline Kennedy, Bruce
Springsteen, Benito Mussolini, Napoleon, Michael Jackson, Robert
Redford, Barak Obama, and Charles Darwin.
Part II discusses how handwriting is organized by the brain and includes
many examples of the link between handwriting and various illnesses and
brain disorders, from dyslexia and epilepsy to stroke and coma. It ends
with a discussion of the link between different personality types, their
brain organization, and their handwriting.
Part III is an in-depth look at the field of questioned documents,
including such topics as free-hand forgeries, tracing, disguised
handwriting, and anonymous notes. It features an in-depth discussion of
how forgeries are created and how they are detected.
If you are interested in any aspect of this topic, The Definitive Book
of Handwriting Analysis is definitely the book you need!
