Exceptional!!! but some grammatical mistakes
I got this book a week ago and I must say - this is a very good book.
This book is a little bit different than other palmistry books and I am very happy - so happy that I cannot stop reading it all.
THe book does not lay emphasis on mounts and shapes of the hands - which was confusing to me in the first place.
It looks at palmistry at a modern level - simple enough to understand.
The chapters are named as Hour One to Hour 24.
There are easy to understand terminologies for fingers - instead of Jupiter its 'mirror' finger and so on.
Very interesting book.
This is my first read of Johnny Fincham and I am already a huge fan of him.

However, this book has not been proofread properly.
There are grammatical mistakes that are very obvious - spelling and notation.
In some places, when they show two hands (pictures) - and ask us a question - the answer points at the wrong picture.
(Naomi and Amber's question on Pg 107-108)

A Bit Confusing to Start, but Interesting
If you've read other books or studied hand analysis it might be a bit confusing for you trying to put something different in your head after learning another way. Not bad, just confusing.

Renaming the fingers made sense as the old name are just that, old. And a bit too woo woo for many. I've seen eyes glaze over when the old names were used.

A different way to look at things in a refreshing manner.

Really SOLID Book for Your Hand Reading Library
I did enjoy this book. He gives a common sense method to reading hands and helps you break it down into ez to digest bites. He renames the fingers (does not use the traditional Jupiter, Saturn etc.), which takes about three minutes to get used to. I could see why he did it.

He does give good advice on how to tell if fingers are really longer etc.

Use this book with Richard Unger and Ronelle Coburn's books and you will be well on your way!
