The ABCs of Handwriting Analysis is an indispensable tool for anyone hoping to peer behind the letters on a page—professionals responsible for hiring and managing other employees, and hobbyists looking to uncover the truths we reveal through our writing. It demonstrates proven techniques for deconstructing hand-lettering to determine an individual's inner workings—revealing mental aptitudes and emotional characteristics, odd or unusual personality traits, sense of humor, sexual motivation, and many other qualities—all through the critical analysis of the slant, pressure, size, and shape of one's scripted letters. Claude Santoy's step-by-step instruction on the most practical and up-to-date methods of handwriting evaluation includes psychological interpretation of drawings and doodles, methods of determining mental health from handwriting, workbook examples to help readers master the system, and a helpful glossary of terminology. Packed with useful information, The ABCs of Handwriting Analysis is the ultimate guide for anyone interested in uncovering the secrets hidden within handwriting.

This review is from: The ABCs of Handwriting Analysis: The Complete Guide to Techniques and Interpretations (Paperback)
THE ABCs OF HANDWRITING ANALYSIS was all right if it's your first book, but I was disappointed. The info was too general, for me.

I am a certified analyst and do not agree with Mr. Santoy's view in a lot of cases. I'm a calligrapher and fancy, embellished writing does not always mean that someone is lacking in intelligence and/or education. But it is always nice to read a book on handwriting analysis with a different perspective. We never learn it all. Thanks, Aysa Armitage

My brother's hobby is handwriting analysis. I purchased this as well as one other book and sent them to him for his birthday. He was very pleased and is enjoying them very much.
