Book excerpt: The Palmistry Textbook: An Illustrated Guide to Reading Hands, by Peter Burns, is a clearly written, step-by-step guide to hand analysis. Any reader's ability to learn will be greatly enhanced by the author's 80 well-drawn graphic illustrations of hands and photographs of palms-each illustrating his text explanations. The book is organized into thirty lessons that begin with the requirements and ethics involved in becoming a palm reader, the historical context and the terminology, and then progress though each step in analyzing the shape, size, structure and type of hands, the fingers, thumb and nails, the mounts, zones, lines, genetic engravings and more, concluding with a final two lessons on how to put it all together-to synthesize your understanding. Throughout the text, the author emphasizes the profound psychological insights one can gain through hand analysis. At the close of each lesson are a few questions so that you can self-test what you've learned. Answers to the questions are given at the end of the book. The author, a well-known palmist and astrologer from Victoria, Australia, is owner of the Ambrosia Academy of Astrology, through which he offers extensive correspondence courses in astrology and palmistry. He has offered many lectures and teaching seminars in Australia and the USA and is touring in USA late Autumn 2011.
