I'll never look at someone's handwriting the same way again! This is a good first book to read if you're interested in graphology. It's quick (I read it in a few hours), entertaining, and just fun. ( ) This was a fascinating read. Well written and easy to follow with ample examples. My partner does not believe in handwriting analysis so we did an analysis based on the information in this book. It described her to a T. I don't think I will ever look at other people's notes in the same way again. This book has inspired me to find out more about the topic. Is handwriting analysis a science or not? Is it legit or is it bullshit? Many believe it's a pseudo science despite it being used to solve many crimes, but I wanted to decide for myself. After reading Sex, Lies, and Handwriting - A Top Expert Reveals the Secrets Hidden in Your Handwriting by Michelle Dresbold, I'm convinced that it's definitely legit. The direction your writing slants, whether your letters have lead in strokes or even how hard you dot your 'i's' are all clues to your personality, character and even your upbringing. It's fascinating really. The case study of the ransom letter in the JonBenet Ramsey case was riveting (and proves it was written by JonBenet's mother Patsy) as was the analysis of many famous signatures. I'm not sure I believe the analysis right down to the weapon strokes, and I don't think I'll be able to remember all the strokes to look for, but I enjoyed seeing how handwriting analysis can prove a signature is forged or how writing can be proven to have come from the same person. I also enjoyed the case studies and exercises provided in the book, and it certainly made me look at my own writing in a whole new light. Recommended reading for skeptics, forensic enthusiasts and readers of true crime. This was fun. I kept a sheet of paper tucked in the book for some guided exercises, and as I read I doodled my signature or jotted a few lines of freewriting to have a basis for my own comparison. I have mixed feelings about my own handwriting. It's never been a source of pride, but I have grown to like the way it looks. The author suggests that if we recognize aggressive marks in our writing we can consciously change both our handwriting and our mindset. The book focuses on bad people and how their handwriting reflects their violent tendencies. I'm not sure how much I believe about the predictive application of handwriting analysis - for example, the author recalls a practice case in which she could tell from a handwriting sample that the person "grew up in Austria or Germany and moved to the United States when she was a teenager," a spot-on analysis of the subject. I feel possibly able to tell that a crazy looking signature could belong to a crazy acting person, but I'll leave the rest to the experts. The topic of handwriting analysis has always intrigued me and this book was a great beginner’s guide to understanding the basics of graphology. Dresbold gives wonderful examples of the handwriting she discusses. She illustrates the major points of handwriting profiling be utilizing examples of criminals, madmen, and the average person. This was a relatively light and easy read that was always interesting. This is a great book for anyone interested in graphology that wants an easy to understand explanation of handwriting analysis. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
A handwriting expert reveals the secrets hidden in your penmanship--now featuring a new afterword analyzing the handwriting of President Donald Trump. Handwriting expert Michelle Dresbold--the only civilian to be invited to the United States Secret Service's Advanced Document Examination training program--draws on her extensive experience helping law enforcement agencies around the country on cases involving kidnapping, arson, forgery, murder, embezzlement, and stalking to take us inside the mysterious world of crossed t's and dotted i's. In Sex, Lies, and Handwriting, Dresbold explains how a single sentence can provide insight into a person's background, psychology, and behavior. Throughout the book, Dresbold explores the handwriting of sly politicians, convicted criminals, notorious killers, suspected cheats, and ordinary people who've written to Dresbold's "The Handwriting Doctor" column for help. She shows you how to identify the signs of a dirty rotten scoundrel and a lying, cheating, backstabbing lover. And she introduces you to some of the most dangerous traits in handwriting, including weapon-shaped letters, "shark's teeth," "club strokes," and "felon's claws." Dresbold also explains how criminals are tracked through handwritten clues and what spouses, friends, or employees might be hiding in their script. Sex, Lies, and Handwriting will have you paying a bit more attention to your--and everyone else's--penmanship. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
