What does a page of handwriting reveal when you look at it as a whole?
In Reading Between the Lines: Decoding Handwriting, Sheila Lowe introduces the gestalt approach to handwriting analysis. Rather than assigning a meaning to one stroke at a time, she shows readers how to observe the overall pattern of space, form, and movement-and how those elements relate to one another.
Lowe also explains the traditional trait-stroke method, giving newcomers and experienced graphologists a clear point of comparison. Drawing on more than five decades in the field, she offers a way to see beyond individual letters and understand the character of the writing as a whole.
