Better Handwriting

This is a practical guide to improved handwriting, which has been specially written for adults. It covers self-diagnosis, penhold, the particular problems of left-handers and the impediments caused by medical conditions. It does not attempt to impose a particular handwriting model, but offers alternatives and encourages readers to experiment and chose how best to improve their legibility and speed. Dr Sassoon is a handwriting consultant specialising in both medical and educational aspects of this skill. She is also the author of "The Practical Guide to Children's Handwriting" and "Handwriting: A New Perspective". Dr Briem is a designer and expert in Icelandic lettering.
