It is an easy-to-learn technique, and she provides pictures of hands and lines, present case studies, checklists, and supplies worksheets that enable you to quickly grasp the overall meaning of all of the features of the hand. Also included are instructions for making good palmprints. This is the book to have if you want to learn to read the palm!
