Print on Demand. This book explores the ancient and fascinating art of cheirosophy, the science of reading a person's character and destiny through their hands. The author expertly guides readers through the history of hand analysis, tracing its roots from ancient superstitions and customs to the systematic observations of modern cheiromantists. You'll discover how the shapes of hands, the prominence of their joints, the length and curvature of their fingers, and even the subtle details of the palms all hold clues to a person's innermost nature. The author delves into the physiological basis of cheirosophy, explaining how the structure and development of the hand reflect the mental and physical characteristics of its owner. Drawing upon the insights of renowned thinkers like Aristotle and Galen, the author provides a compelling argument for the validity of this often-dismissed art, showcasing how careful observation of the hand can reveal truths about a person's character, talents, and even their potential for success and happiness. Ultimately, this book offers a unique and insightful perspective on the complex relationship between our physical form and our inner lives. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

Riassunto

Excerpt from Practical Cheirosophy: A Synoptical Study of the Science of the Hand, With Explanatory Plates and Diagrams

Into my discourse, did I not hold it to be a lecturer's duty to his audience, to be as brief as circumstances will permit. I have also utilized the Opportunities thus Offered me, to append a fairly complete system of notes, which may help those of my readers who feel a sufficient interest in the subject to probe the matters referred to more deeply; and I have further made reference, where it has seemed necessary or advisable, to my larger works on the Science Of Cheirosophy, so that this little work may, as it were, serve for an ele mentary guide to the study of those larger volumes.
