The Study of Palmistry: A CompIete Palmistic Dictionary with 1254 Original Illustrations
The Study of Palmistry: A Complete Palmistic Dictionary is a book by Comte C. De Saint Germain with an introduction by Adolphe Desbarrolles. It is a comprehensive guide to palmistry, the practice of fortune-telling by reading the lines and features of the hand.
The book includes over 1254 illustrations to help readers understand the different markings on the hand and their associated meanings. It covers a wide range of topics, including:
- The history of palmistry
- The anatomy of the hand
- The major and minor lines of the hand
- The mounts of the hand
- The fingers and fingernails
- Dermatoglyphics (the study of fingerprints and palm prints)
Palmistry is a pseudoscience, and no scientific evidence supports its claims. However, the book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning more about this ancient practice.
