Why you are what you are

Henri Le Barr

This book is a result of my fifteen years' study of Psychology, Criminology, Insanity, and last but not least, the science of Character Analysis. 

The facts that are brought to light are my modest contribution to the general knowledge of the human character and primarily are designed to foster the application of all known facts into everyday use for the betterment of life. All the theories that are not substantiated by actual experiences either of myself or others have been eliminated. 

This volume was written especially for use in my classes, and although the facts may be easily grasped by anyone, there are places that can be understood in full only when supplemented by the demonstrations, such as are given in the classroom; for instance, how to observe musical ability, the flexibility and consistency of a hand, and the combinations of features. One chapter is devoted to the so-called "mixed types," which to my knowledge have never been propounded to a great extent by any Character Analyst. One chapter is devoted to the science of Graphology, one to Salesmanship, another to Insanity and Criminology, and there are,, thirteen chapters on the study, research and daily use of Character Analysis. Altho I have borrowed extensively from the works of my contemporaries and from those who have lived and worked before me in this line to all of whom I gratefully give due credit nevertheless, my own study and research are ample to warrant the publication of this volume. All that I really aim to do is to give in the most comprehensive way the facts that are known to me, so that the gaps which remain in this Science up to the present day may be filled.

I resolved to write this book without delay as a direct result of my teaching of the subject, and it is with deep faith that I dedicate this book to my students, whose zeal to know this Science was my real inspiration, and whose grasp of the subject, in many cases far beyond my expectation, is my abundant reward.
