Publications SCRIPTOR BOOKS The PSYCHOLOGY of HANDWRITING by Dr. Jean-Charles Gille-Maisani THE PSYCHOLOGY OF HANDWRITING  first appeared in France in the 1970s and has gone through several editions. This translation, commissioned by Scriptor Books, is based on the 1989 edition, with revisions and additions by the author. It starts with a clear summary of the classical French approach to graphology. Intended for the beginner, but in fact an extremely useful refresher for the practising graphologist, it restates and explains by means of examples the fundamental concepts on which this science is based and warns of the most frequent pitfalls. The author reviews the many contributions from France and elsewhere which have enriched modern graphology, and goes on to study thirty-three kinds of handwriting in the light of these advances. He gives a running commentary throughout, which serves to tie in the ideas he is discussing with their historical antecedents, and the unusually extensive bibliography is an excellent guide for those wishing to study further or engage in research. Graphology evolves, as does any living science. In this work the author has combined concepts which have stood the test of time with new ideas, in the process extending and refining handwriting interpretation.
