Excerpt from Graphology, How to Read From Handwriting: Studies in Character Reading, a Text-Book of Graphology for Experts, Students and Laymen
My Dear Doctor,
You have been kind enough to dedicate to me your new book on Graphology, and, in thanking you for this token of friendship, I wish to add that the subject is especially interesting to me, as through all my life I have been fascinated with the study of handwriting, and I have never ceased to be astonished at the immense variety met with.
Every day there appear fresh proofs of the truth of your deductions, but what strikes me most forcibly is that the formation of written letters is so frequently symbolical of the physical and psychic characteristics of a writer. This leads me to advise the student of Graphology to seek for peculiarities of this nature and thereby enlarge his own field of observation and deduction, to the ultimate benefit of this branch of science.
Having had the privilege of reading this book in manuscript, I have been greatly impressed with the simplicity of its arrangement, and I feel sure it will be found by all readers to be of practical value in business, social and other walks of life.
