Nathaniel Altman is a Brooklyn-based writer, teacher and hand analyst who has authored more than twenty books on spirituality, peace studies, healthy diets, alternative healing, nature and relationship. Nathaniel has been reading hands since 1969, after developing an interest in palmistry while studying in South America. He soon began reading the hands of everyone he knew, and started taking prints of the hands of family members and friends. This has grown to a collection of thousands of handprints, some of which appear in this book. Nathaniel's hobby gradually developed into a profession. Over the years he has read the hands of over 25,000 individuals, including those he has met at a wide variety of corporate events sponsored by Martha Stewart Omnimedia, Time Warner, HBO, American Lawyer Media, Avon, Merrill Lynch, The New York Times Company, Dr. Pepper, Bloomberg, Cravath, Swaine & Moore, The Whitney Museum of American Art, McKinsey & Company, Mail.com, America Online and others. Nathaniel has authored or co-authored numerous books about palmistry, including The Palmistry Workbook (The Aquarian Press, 1982); Sexual Palmistry (The Aquarian Press, 1984, Adams Media, 2002); Palmistry, Career and Self-Fulfillment (with Andrew Fitzherbert, published by The Aquarian Press in 1988); Medical Palmistry (with Eugene Scheimann, M.D., published by The Aquarian Press in 1989); and The Little Giant Encyclopedia of Palmistry (Sterling Publishing, 1999). The original edition of Palmistry: The Universal Guide was published by Sterling in 2009. Nathaniel's palmistry titles have been translated into more than a dozen languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, Greek, Dutch, Arabic, Serbian, Hebrew, Estonian, Swedish, Finnish, Thai, Italian, German, Russian and Chinese. A 1971 graduate of the University of Wisconsin in Madison, Nathaniel served as a faculty member at the Krotona School of Theosophy in Ojai, California. He has appeared on over 150 radio and television programs throughout the United States, Australia, Latin America and Europe. Nathaniel's articles have appeared in a variety of publications, including Good Housekeeping, Natural Health, Well Being, Free Spirit, New Life, USA Today and Vegetarian Times.
