I liked this book. Of all the palmistry books on my shelves (I have 14 or so) this one is completely fresh. It doesn't just rehash old material as most palmistry books do. It's very well written and intelligent with lots of new insights and angles on hand reading that I've never come across before. The illustrations are particularly good, with an example of every pattern and line from an actual hand print. Highly recommended.

completely fresh look at palmistry - Rated
This is a cool book. It's well written and quite funny in parts with some devastating new research and fresh angles on palmistry that are bang up-to-date. This book makes a very effective tool for learning the art of hand-reading. If you want a really modern, palmistry manual that works- get this one - it's great.

A breakthrough in palmistry - Rated
Yeah, I enjoyed this book. I have a lot of palmistry books and this work actually breaks new ground with some new insights and research that was very impressive. For instance, the index finger is linked to the mother relationship and so a lot about a persons nuturing experience can be inferred from it. Along with a lot of very practical and thorough advice, there's a chapter about how to develop your intuition which I've never come across before in a palmistry book.
I'd say this is an excellent book and well worth a recommendation, there's something here for beginner and pro alike. The illustrations are particularly good.
My only critisicm is that it's a bit 'dense'. There's a lot packed into every page and a bit more spacing out and the addition of a few graphics would liven the text up a bit.

For the serious beginner, that wants to become a pro. - Rated
This book isn't like any other palmistry books I've read. For a start, it's broken down into a series of exercises that you have to complete and some of them are hard. For instance, you've got to collect one of the four types of elemental palm - which took me nearly two weeks to do. There's an exercise at the end of every chapter.
The images in this book are really good - there are about 200 of them, some are a bit small, but they're of actual palms, rather than silly drawings that you get in most palmistry books.
The book takes you right through the reading process, from learning how to take a palm print, to giving a reading to professional level. There's lots of stuff here: how to give spiritual readings, health readings, vocational, psychological readings. Lots of scientific research that backs up palmistry. And it even teaches you how to sharpen up your intuition.
All in all, a damn good book, the best palmistry work I've read by a long way. But it is hard work, and it's not for the faint hearted.
