Excerpt from The Psychology and Physiology of Mirror-Writing Clapham18 believes that abduction is the more convenient movement for writing. He studied a child who could write with the left hand almost equally well in three styles - namely, mirrorwise (the style first learned), rightwards (as she was made to write in school), and with alternate lines in opposite directions (when she was absent-minded).

Excerpt from The Psychology of Handwriting All that is necessary to consider is that the impulses which are transmitted from the brain to the fingers differ, in degree, with each person, setting him apart from his fellows; and by comparing the strength or weakness Of strokes with the particular formations which appear, it is possible to reach an accurate conclusion. So people are divided into groups in accordance with their like nesses or dissimilarities Of pen formations. The English writer, Disraeli says, Handwriting bears an analogy to the character Of the writer, as all voluntary actions are characteristic. It is a common occurrence with us all to recognize the script of our friends and acquaintances. We do it at sight, automatically, in the same way that we know the tones of voice. The science of reading character from handwriting is a simple one, if the principles laid down are followed. At the outset, it is self-evident to everyone that bodily weakness affects the steadiness Of the hand. In wielding the pen, the person's force and stamina being lowered, the features of the writing become altered, reflecting such debility. NO malady to which we are heirs but stretches its tentacles along the nerves, getting the muscles in their firm grasp, and this retards freedom of movement. For this reason a change is made in an individual's usual style. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Physiology of Mind: Being the First Part of a Third Edition, Revised, Enlarged, and in Great Part Rewritten, of "the Physiology and Pathology of Mind" There was another inhibitory reflection, occa sioned by a contemplation of the revolution in psychological method, which has been going on for some time now, and of the entirely different aspects which many psychological questions have assumed in consequence.
