Some Reviews:

This book on Handwriting Analysis is more than a basic introduction. It offers straightforward information that is well explained and categorized. The additional chapters are as articulate and even more intriguing. While some books contain only enough information to tease and others give so much detail you're confused, this one is truly helpful. I frequently use it as a reference and am still surprised at how easy it is to use.
Carmen Kirschling, President of The Ontario Chapter of The International Graphoanalysis Society.
Handwriting Analysis: An Adventure in Self Discovery is truly an adventure in self-discovery. The material is a clear and concise course in handwriting analysis. The organization is excellent; I particularly like how each characteristic is interpreted, both in its positive and negative aspects. Also, the various worksheets are excellent tools that facilitate interpretation. As well, the sections on kids and the signs of dishonesty are priceless additions. A valuable addition is the section on determining emotional intelligence, an often ignored, but very important understanding of self and of others. This book is one of the several books that I keep within reach and use quite frequently when I'm doing an analysis.
Len Ryan, Vice President of the Ontario Chapter of the International Graphoanalysis Society.
Having just finished teaching an accredited Ontario College, Introductory course in Handwriting Analysis to mostly Law and Security students, I can say that the choice of using Peter Dennis's book, Handwriting Analysis, An Adventure in Self-discovery, as our main reference text was a resounding success. The students said they liked the book and found it easy to read and understand; and from the dogged-eared look of some of them by the end of the course - proved that they were well read.
Paul Boivin, Certified Handwriting Analyst, NLP Trainer, President of Paul D. Boivin + Associates.
I can't say enough about this book. Being very basic, it is terrific as a guide to my beginner course. It is clear and concise, and very easy for non-handwriting analysts to understand. In addition, it covers different subjects such as compatibility in relationships, children, and how we can help them learn and develop, as well as learning about our emotional...

DEDICATION

I have always admired good teachers. They are the ones who help us learn about ourselves and, in doing so, they answer a very high calling. Everyone teaches in some way and I dedicate this book to those who do it well.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

First, I want to express my gratitude to the more than 10,000 individuals who bought the three printed editions of this book. Their purchases and positive feedback have encouraged me to produce this electronic version.

I also want to recognize my many handwriting analysis colleagues who use this book in their courses and recommend it to their students and friends. Over the years, I have had the very great pleasure of collaborating with them in study sessions, workshops, presentations and debate, and as a result, they have helped me to grow, refine my ideas, and to make this a better book. There are too many of them to name individually but mainly they are the members of the Ontario Chapter of the International Graphoanalysis Society.

PREFACE

Graphology is the term that means Handwriting Analysis. Graphoanalysis is the particular style of Graphology that is taught and practiced by the US-based International Graphoanalysis Society.

Early in 1991 I became a certified Graphoanalyst and began thinking about how I might market this service. I started by telephoning a few newspaper journalists and telling them about Graphoanalysis and what it could do. Nearly all of them were at least a little intrigued and most agreed to write articles. These articles generated interest that resulted in radio and television interviews, and I soon found myself being invited to give talks on the subject.

In talking to groups, I was frequently asked if I would teach handwriting analysis. In exploring this idea, it soon became apparent that most people were not interested in becoming full-time handwriting analysts as much as they were interested in learning some of the fundamentals and gaining a few insights into themselves and others.

With this in mind, I developed a ten-hour introductory course. It has been well received, and from its inception, students began asking where they could find a book to reinforce the lessons of the course. Some encouraged me to write such a book. So I did, and here it is. The book is intended to introduce beginners to the subject, either as a companion to introductory courses or by itself. As it turned out, the book also became a popular reference for experienced practitioners.

INTRODUCTION

When starting out as a practitioner of handwriting analysis, most of us are quick to gain a great respect for its power. We learn that it gives us tremendous insight into the personality of others and, very soon, the lights go on and we realize that, more than anything, we are learning about ourselves. I think that learning about ourselves is an important part of our purpose as a species and handwriting analysis is a wonderful tool for such self-discovery.

The first edition of this book taught the reader how to do a basic analysis of personality from a sample of handwriting. It taught how to recognize over 85 different aspects of personality. The second edition presented how this knowledge could be organized so as to get a good reading in three major areas of application: emotional intelligence, compatibility in relationships and how parents and teachers could understand children better in order to help them grow and develop.

Emotional intelligence is approximately three times more important for achieving success in life, and in the workplace than is cognitive intelligence or IQ. Based on the worlds first scientifically developed and validated assessment of emotional intelligence, chapter seven will show you how you can use handwriting analysis to identify fifteen key elements that make up ones EQ or Emotional Quotient. And, the good news is, that unlike IQ , EQ is learnable and growable.

When we have loving relationships in our lives, we are happier and healthier. When we have trusting, collaborative relationships in business, we can get wealthier. In other walks of life, solid, supportive relationships are important for success and well-being. I know there are exceptions but, generally, this is true.

Relationships are the most fantastic schools. Sometimes they are wonderful, they can be uplifting, developmental and joyous. Other times, they can be troublesome, dysfunctional and exasperating. In all cases, we can learn much about ourselves and then choose whether or not to make changes. Chapter eight will show you how handwriting analysis can identify some key variables to help you decide who you might want to work with, live with, marry, avoid like the plague, etc.

Over the past few years, I have heard a great many teachers and parents express frustration and alarm about the number of learning disabilities and behaviour problems they are seeing in young people. As well, many parents have told me how disappointed they are with their childs penmanship. Chapter nine deals with these and a number of related topics. Mostly, this chapter will show you how you can look at a childs handwriting and, as a parent or teacher, understand the child better and provide more appropriate support.

The third edition of this book explores a new application: Danger and Dishonesty. These are two qualities that have always intrigued humans. Who among us hasnt wondered about the honesty of someone who was trying to sell us something, persuade us of some idea or convince us to take some action? Chapter ten will show you over 60 signs that can be found in handwriting that will point to potential danger or dishonesty. This is sure to give you the edge when trying to figure who is prone to lying, who is likely to cheat you and who might be a real danger.

With this new chapter and a few minor adjustments, the adventure in self-discovery continues. Enjoy.
