Analyze This: What Handwriting Reveals

by Allan Conway

The fun of handwriting analysis at home—it’s not just for experts anymore.

Here’s a fun and effective way to interpret someone’s energy level, work habits, and a host of other traits-all from a brief analysis of his handwriting. Study details such as baseline slope, shape of individual letters, and distance between words; and see how these factors reveal the different characteristics of the writer. Engaging individual case studies consider slant, size, and overall appearance, and additional chapters focus on left-handedness, signatures, creating a graphology chart, and compatibility in relationships and work. An analysis of famous signature and handwriting examples, including those of John F. Kennedy, Princess Diana, and Frank Sinatra, to name just a few, make this an enlightening and informative approach to a remarkably accurate science.

Got this book for 3 dollars. I wouldn't have normally bought it. Just a super quick overview of handwriting analysis. I'd love to get a full reading from a graphologist on what my handwriting says about me. This may be my birthday gift to myself.

I've had some issues in the past related to mental health and the first things my psychologist said to me when he saw my handwriting was something like, he could tell from my writing that something was wrong and it had been a problem for at least a couple of years. Since getting healthier I always keep an eye on my handwriting to notice if there are big changes. I keep a journal and when I'm done with a notebook I'll flip thru it and if it looks markedly different I'll read the entry to see what was going on for me emotionally at that time. Any old way it's interesting.

Also I think it's something that I'll use in future for business related things.

Fairly good as far as handwriting analysis goes! Easy to follow. Wish there were a few more examples at times but overall, a good reference. Will have to re-read this to keep things fresh in my memory.

Come libro di divulgazione non c'è male: molti argomenti, dal Movimento a Pophal, e la maggior parte delle corrispondenze non sono sbagliate.

Certo, scrivere giusto "Crepieux" è comunque fuori dalla sua portata, ha uno strano concetto di movimento vibrante e di mollezza, fa simbolismo delle singole lettere e le analisi dei "famosi" sono un po' ridicole.

Ma insomma, molto meglio di tanta roba che c'è in giro.
