Isaac Pitman’s Shorthand Instructor: A Complete Exposition of Isaac Pitman's System of Phonography
Excerpt from Isaac Pitman's Shorthand Instructor: A Complete Exposition of Isaac Pitman's System of Phonography
In the numerous editions of Phonography published in succeeding years, many improvements were introduced. These were the fruit of long and varied stenographie experiments, and of the valuable criticism and experience of large numbers of expert writers of the system who had applied it to work of every description. No other system of shorthand designed for the English language has been subjected to tests so prolonged, so diverse, and so severe as those which Pitman's Shorthand - as the system is now generally styled - has undergone during the last seventy-six years, with the result that it has been most successfully adapted to the practical requirements of all classes of shorthand writers.
