There are many inadequacies in this book..too many to mention. I would like to know what kind of background Ms. Conway has in the area of handwriting analysis. A lot of the information in this book is so far off the beaten path. I have read many books on handwriting analysis including Graphology, Graphoanalysis and Graphotherapy. I am returning the book. It is a great dissappointment. In my opinion there is more information that is inaccurate than accurate. It is very misleading to the novice. It shows me that anyone can write a book and sell it. Not good!

This was my first Graphology book, and it was dissappointing. If the author has done any systematic research, it found no mention in the book. Instead, the analysis seems to be based purely on visual lines (references to "foetal position" shapes & musical notes' shapes & "smiles" in people's writing). Agreed that all script started out as pictograms, but this drags things a bit too far.
Also, she completely discounts the fact that many people write upto 60% of their alphabets in so called "print"& that non-cursive writing could also exhibit many numerous variations & unique traits.
