Excerpt from The Science of the Hand
This volume is, as it were, illustrative to A Manual 'of Chez'msophy. L have established throughout a series of cross references to that volume, so that those of my readers who already possess it will find as it were a still more amplified commentary to this text therein. It is for this reason that I have carefully avoided in any way repeating any of the indications which are laid down in that volume, excepting so far as the first section of the Manual owes its origin to the work of M. D' Arpentigny.
