BRAVO!!! Infused w/ Deep, Intriguing & Wonderfully Down to Earth material

I've studied and worked with many clients hands. Richard Unger takes hand analysis to new heights. His book was/is fascinating along with sharing personal experiences that are applicable and meaningful. Organized in an easy manner for all to follow. BRAVO!!!! I would highly recommend for those interested in extracting deeper meaning. Wonderfully written & highly intriguing.

Dedicated To His Work

I was fortunate enough to listen to Mr. Unger at a book signing recently and his dedication to this work is very honorable. "Dermatoglyphics" is the tech term for the medical study of fingerprints,hand & line shape which until now was well hidden in the medical archives. I love how he integrates his many years of study in "esoteric" palmistry with the scientific findings, married to the combined years of personal experience. You will be truly impressed as you check out your own hands to find the well defined catagories Mr. Unger has "fingerprinted"!His forward is by Frank R. Wilson, former clinical professor of neurology at Stanford University School of Medicine-what does that tell you? It's a great book to find out more about oneself.

An owner's manual for your life!

Much has been written about finding and living a life on purpose, and the last few years have seen the published literature on this topic grow. If you have been searching for your true and unique purpose in life, throw out those other books. This is the only one you will need. Lifeprints author Richard Unger has devised a revolutionary and reliable method for identification of your true life purpose. Using his method, the answer to the question, "Why am I here?" is right at the tips of your fingers. Literally. Your fingerprint patterns, unalterable and unchanging since 5 months prior to your birth, are coded in your DNA. Recent scientific research into our genetic makeup has revealed that many personality traits are also hardwired in your DNA. Unger's Lifeprints method for using the fingerprint patterns to determine which of those traits are driving your search for meaning could not be simpler or more elegant. Based on more than 25 years of research, Unger lays out his method in terms that are clear and easy to grasp. As simple as identifying which of the four basic fingerprint types you have, how many of each you have, and which fingers they appear on, Unger guides you step-by-step to determination of your unique life purpose. He affirms his technique with examples and stories of real people he has advised using his Lifeprints technique, and he does it with a wise and gentle humor that will ring true with anyone who has traveled the road towards self-awareness. In addition to the how-to steps, Unger presents an "archetypal language" for understanding what it takes to get on track with your unique life purpose. Not just general advice, Unger offers specific skill requirements, checklists and formulas for the most common life purpose scenarios. He illustrates what it looks like to be living in mastery of your purpose as well how to know if you are still "in training." In chapter five, Unger guides you in creating your own Life-Fulfillment Formula and provides exercises to help you deepen your understanding. As an added bonus, he includes case studies using the fingerprints of famous figures. If you've ever yearned for an "owner's manual" for how to get the most out of life, this is it. Lifeprints is a blueprint for life.

Must Have for your Soul's Journey!

Concise and to the point. I've been so pleased to have been able to study with a Master Teacher from the International Institue of Hand Analysis for the past three years. My hand analysis has given me great insight into myself and compassion -- for myself and those I come in contact with everyday. This book is a great tool for those looking for greater insight and harmony into living their life purose. The experience and guidance that Unger brings to this work is phenomenal. It's clear that he is doing his life's purpose each time he reads hands and offers empathetic guidance to those struggling to live their best life. I've been working with and observing my own hands, my purpose, my lesson and my school since 2005, but reading this book has added deeper insight to what's been swirling around in my hands, and for that I'm grateful. It's also a wonderful first step for anyone interested in pursuing the science of hand analysis on a deeper level. An absolute must-have for those on their soul's journey in the 21st Century.

Fabulous

If you are looking for a completely "down to earth" approach to discovering hidden aspects of your life, and integrating them so they start serving your life purpose, then "Lifeprints" is the book to read. Richard Unger at his Best !!
