This book is designed to convince the healthy and scientific-minded sceptic that hand analysis is a science worthy of serious consideration. The laws of scientific hand analysis are presented here in a very simple manner, and are amply illustrated by diagrams. This book is also intended for those who do not have the faintest concept of what hand analysis or astrology is all about, so that no previous knowledge is required for its understanding. At the same time the subject of hand analysis has been comprehensively emphasized. As such this book will be of interest to professional astrologers. In many Eastern countries leading astrologers have a good knowledge of hand analysis. Where the horoscope does not give clear guidance on a particular aspect, they consult the palms in order to obtain clarification. The ideas put forward in this book are based on the Indian, Western and Egyptian schools of hand analysis, although the Indian system has been used the most. The scientific rationale be-hind the wearing of particular gems in order to ward off evil planetary influences is also succinctly described. Above all, this is meant to be an eminently straightforward and practical work. The sceptic has only to study his own palms to be pleasantly surprised at how accurately hand analysis reveals his own particular case.The Essential Work shows and explains all facets of palmistry thoroughly in language anyone can understand.The Essential Work brings Benham s original text back in print.

When it was originally published (as The Laws of Scientific Hand Reading), Benham s book immediately transformed the image of palm reading from a huckster s trick to a practice with a firm scientific basis. It quickly became an essential reference work for anyone serious about palm reading. The Essential Work shows and explains all facets of palmistry thoroughly in language anyone can understand.The Essential Work brings Benham s original text back in print. It also updates many of the graphics, (more than 400 illustrations and photographs), which have become obscured through numerous printings. Benham s words remain as viable today as they were 100 years ago, as they form the foundation of modern palmistry.
