Customer Reviews

Intriguing, funny, insightful, useful

I've been interested in handwriting analysis since I was in my teen years, but I've found so many of the books on the topic to read like dry, boring textbooks. Not so with Michelle Dresbold's book. From the first page, Dresbold grabs the readers and entertains while instructing. I read the entire book in one day because I was so enthralled with her examples, her writing, and her information. I particularly liked the structure of the book, how she moved from some general information into more specific examples of analysis. And I felt like after finishing the book, I had a good enough grasp to begin a very rough analysis of the handwriting of those around me (hopefully we won't see any felon's hooks or pugilistic p's).

Most Interesting On Subject.

When I got it I read it in two days. Couldn't put it down. It is cute, gimmicky, and the most interesting book on the subject I've ever read. The first book I read on this subject was in 1962. Other books do not grab you like this one does. Highly recommended. I'll be waiting for her next book! Spitited and well-written.

Great book!!

This is a fascinating book, and well researched. Michelle Dresbold has written a great book on handwriting analysis that's interesting as well as entertaining. I especially enjoyed the examples of handwriting and the different personality characteristic that were listed. If you're the type of person who's curious about human psychology, you'll find this book intriguing.

Fascinating--and fun!

This is a cleverly constructed, highly entertaining book that teaches us what our handwriting style reveals about ourselves and others, including many notables from Jack the Ripper to Elvis Presley to whoever wrote the JonBenet Ramsey ransom note. It is an easy read that has made it around our office quickly and led to some fun-filled discissions about each other's handwritten notes. In a way it reminds us of the popular science we know about body language, although handwriting seems to tell us so much more. Dresbold is an "expert" on this subject who, characteristic of the best of those who are tops in their field, can present it in a way that is understandable and enjoyable for a wide audience. Highly recommended.

fascinating book

It is really amazing that handwriting can reveal so much about a person. This book tells it all and is quite convincing. I often am very wrong about peoples personalities because so many people put on good acts and later you find out how wrong you are about them. But as this author says, the handwriting cannot lie. You can see what people are really trying to hide and know peoples secret lives better. Wish I had know more so I would know who to avoid and who to trust. A nice read, and would recommend it though many out there are skeptical. (Perhaps they have something to hide!)
