Delightful introduction to the study of graphology. Had fun with the book's readable guide to analyzing my own handwriting and that of my friends and family. Especially entertaining to see the personal writings and juicy analyses of celebrity actors, politicians, rock stars and royalty. Derived some useful advice on how to handle the boss, based upon his handwriting.

SIGNATURE FOR SUCCESS conveys a whole new level of passion and excitement for handwriting analysis by showing samples from famous people in the most interesting ways. For example, samples of celebrity handwriting are included in sections where readers are asked to choose which person they'd select for job applicants, friends, and lovers... and are then let in on the secret about which famous people those handwriting samples really belong to. Arlyn also shares some real-life samples of handwriting she's received, along with her answers to readers' questions based on her analysis of each handwriting sample.

A wide variety of personality traits are described and displayed that show up in handwriting, including qualities like: introvert/extrovert, honesty/dishonesty, patience/impatience, easy-going/angry. Once you've learned the basics about how to spot warning signs in handwriting, it's amazingly simple to find out a great deal of information.

SIGNATURE FOR SUCCESS is an inspirational gem that is fun to read on many levels: pure entertainment, thought-provoking insights, and self-improvement. I give this book my highest recommendation!

I had the pleasure of meeting Arlyn Imberman a year ago at which time I showed her the writing of someone I had just started dating. She gave me quite a bit of insight into this person -- including some traits that she thought could be frustrating and disappointing to me. Needless to say, within six months, I began to see some of these personality flaws at play and the relationship ended. Having been made aware of these hidden tendencies, I was far more prepared for the potential problems that ensued. When I heard about Arlyn's book, I rushed to buy and read it so that I could learn more about handwriting and what it reveals. SIGNATURE FOR SUCCESS is a fascinating and entertaining book that makes the study of handwriting analysis easily understandable and accessible to anyone. What a wonderful tool for gaining insight into the people in our lives, as well as ourselves! I highly recommend this book.

The writer is fluent in writing. It's very easy to read. However, I would like to see some indicators (like a little arrow) as to where the characteristics are that she is mentioning instead of just an signature or a few words from a paragraph. This makes it difficult to follow at some point. Also, one part of the analysis is about how the writer's writing in relation to the space in a page. At times, the author would start to talk about how the writing takes up space or not when there is no boundaries for us to see on the page besides a paragraph by itself, no left edge or right edge or what so ever. These are not major flaws, but it takes the fun out of it for me personally because I'll have to guess what she really means. I would suggest "Handwriting Analysis : Putting It to Work for You" or "Handwriting Analysis: the complete basic book." Both books have plenty of examples and the latter has also some little comic figures. Also, "Grapho-Therapeutics: the pen and pencil therapy" is another good basic that I would pick instead of signature for success.

I am amazed at how this book covers character study and predicts Madoff's character for me once I saw his signature on a legal document!

There are never too many opportunities to become more aware of our own assets and limitations. That awareness always helps us strive through life's obstacles and discover its joys. Our own handwriting can be a perfect place to start! My friend Arlyn's professional guidance can lead the way. Each of us should read this book, then buy it for our friends.

SIGNATURE FOR SUCCESS is a joy to read. The writing style is very approachable. The content is layed out in a well though out manner which gives a the reader an excellent top level picture to what goes into handwriting analysis. I came away with a thorough understanding of what handwriting analysis can and cannot reveal about a person's character.

Like many of the other readers, I enjoy the part of the book that analyzes famous personalities' handwriting. Since many of us are familiar with the personalities it is fun to see them subject to such analysis and that the traits present in their handwriting seem to manifest themselves in well known personality traits of these individuals.

I recommend this book highlh!
