Terribly misleading publication
I have never seen a book on the subject of questioned documents with this many errors.The pathetic grammar is bad enough but not dangerous.The technical errors in this book, and there are dozens, are dangerous for novices who might not know any different.Avoid this book like a contagious disease.There are valid, professional books on this topic by Ordway Hilton, Wilson Harrison, Roy Huber, Albert S. Osborn and others.I wish you allowed negative ratings, because 1 star is not nearly low enough for this book.

Document Examiner Textbook
Forgery is virtually the "oldest crime." This book explains and answers the ins and outs of how to recognize and deal with it. It is both a reference and textbook containing all aspects of forgery including the use of the newest type -- the computer. It is a "must" for your library. I can't say enough good things about it.

Caveat Emptor! Errors rampant.
This book is so full of errors and unintelligible passages that it should be avoided by the naive and curious (in case you believe the information) or the experienced (who probably already know not to waste their money). Occasionally, the book is unintentionally funny. After all, how often can you find a book that provides erroneous information AND is badly written? Both thumbs down. Unfortunately, there is no choice in the field for minus 5 stars. ... Read more

Recommended for people interested in Psychology.
Psychology says that everything we do is a function of our personalities, from what foods we like, to where we sit in the movie theater, to what cars we buy.How we write is no exception.By studying this book thoroughly, you can gain deeper understanding of yourself and insight into others whenever you see their handwriting or even just their signature.I now become more aware of what state I am in by temporary changes in my writing.For example, I notice that I use lighter pressure when tired, etc although I wonder how useful this really is to know.It can be hard to interpret some writing samples that are plain and lack unique traits.But this book, more than others, provides a complete and well- rounded approach to interpreting writing, and shows you that putting graphology to work isn't that hard to do once you understand the basic principles behind it.Read more

The Hidden Meaning -A guide to Handwriting Analysis
This book is incredible. It is clear and precise and easily understood. Hannah Smith is a researcher who has decades of reseach and experience. This is not a book for the coffee table or watercooler crowd. I was able to quickly determine not just the personality of the author of a handwritten note, but also to uncover feelings and attitudes which were not apparent to the writer. The chapters on how to read potential job applicants and spouses was outstanding. In my field of marital counseling it has proven invaluable to get underneath the facade quickly and effectively breakdown barriers. ... Read more

Information packed powerhouse!!
The best little book on the subject that I have been able to find. Very thoroughly explains most "in's and out's" of the handwritten word. Helpful and informative, start with this book and it may not be necessary to buy an other book about handwriting analysis.

Not What You Think It Is
I have been studying handwriting as a hobby for many years, and I found this little book, with its pert little one or two word descriptions for many handwriting strokes, to be inaccurate as well as too general. Many descriptions do not agree with the majority of the handwriting experts that have written other books on this subject. The only useful info I found in this book was about doodles.

Little book full of big fun!
This is a handy little guide to handwriting analysis. Even beginners can quickly access clues to anyone's handwriting. I have had lots of fun learning what handwriting may reveal. I highly recommend this one! ... Read more

The Pen IS Mightier Than the Sword
He says all the right things, but does he look good on paper??That's the question I asked myself after reading "Mr. Write."How could I (how could anyone) resist the temptation to find out using the well-written, clear and insightful analyses provided by Ms. East.Intelligent, witty and sometimes disturbing, Ms. East shows us how cryptology reveals a person's personality through the simple act of writing a note and how anyone can can apply those theories.In addition, she provides easy to understand examples.So, if you're wondering if he's as good as he seems, or too good to be true.Is he kind, open, generous and straightforward or critical, controlling and deceitful?Find out for yourself.By the way, I did.Fortunately, I learned enough to to confirm what I already knew, which was, that while the gentleman in question may not be Mr. Right, he's perfectly suited for Mr. Right Now!!So I'm keeping pen and paper handy while my search continues.

Finding Mr Write
Thoroughly enjoyed "Finding Mr. Wright" - Ms East's no nonsense approach to graphology madeher book very easy to use and understand - sprinkled with good sound advice and excellent examples.THIS MUST READ BOOK - I have strongly recommended o both my male and female friends.

A different stroke for you folks!
This book is quite unlike your typically self-help books. It provides the reader with a 'slant'on the intricacies of finding a mate. The best thing about the book is that the reader can use it to improve their own personal characteristics AND see if that significant other is really the one for you. Read more

Beyersteins are biased
Anyone who believes that this book tells the "truth" about graphology needs to read the rebuttal by Marcel Matley. The author's bias is so obvious that to call this book a scientific review, or anything close to it, is ludicrous. There are plenty of published studies in support of graphology. The Beyerstein brothers apparently prefer to overlook these.

Not husband and wife
Actually, Tom--Barry and Dale are brothers, not husband and wife.

A fresh breeze
Finally an academic team (husband & wife) that tackles this long-persisting parlor science with the rigor that generations of "graphologists" have never been able to muster. Clearly debunking the outrageous claims of practicing graphologists elicits from them the most strenuous and pained denials.But, when asked for proof that their art is any more accurate than astrology (or lie detectors) they reply in bellows of outrage that their professionalism should be questioned by people not practiced in the art.
