About this book

How to Read Human Nature by William Walker Atkinson examines inner states and outer forms, with character, personality and temperaments among the subjects listed in its contents. The text argues that voluntarily adopting a physical expression associated with a mental state will tend to induce the corresponding state of mind. The discussion of firmness associates that quality with a strong tendency toward stability, tenacity, fixedness of purpose and decision.

The description of firmness says that very highly developed firmness, combined with weak reasoning powers, often manifests as stubbornness or obstinacy. The treatment of hands says that very few conform strictly to a single type and that mixed characteristics must be interpreted together.
