The Art and Science of Handwriting

This book reflects the various facets of the author’s lifetime of work in letterforms. The collection of papers and articles, linked by a commentary on a decade in handwriting studies, shows how the educational and medical aspects of her work could not have taken place without a lengthy grounding in lettering. A book for teachers and those who train teachers, as well as therapists and psychologists.
