Features: The palm encompasses the form, color, and Qi information of all body parts. It not only reveals past illnesses but also detects current conditions and even predicts future health issues, just as a non-reproductive cell can clone a life. This book presents the methods of palm health analysis with a scientific approach, objectively introducing palm morphology, finger morphology, palm line morphology, and special symbols and patterns. It also proposes the concept of morphological biology, providing a scientific basis for palm health analysis. General readers seeking to enter the fields of palm diagnosis, facial diagnosis (including ear, pulse, and tongue), foot diagnosis, and body diagnosis need to understand relevant theoretical knowledge such as form, pattern, symbol, color, and touch diagnosis. In terms of psychology, they must grasp the concept of word meaning. To facilitate a sensory understanding for beginners, the book includes over 700 illustrations, most of which are (engraved palm line diagrams), with missing parts drawn according to the text. Each illustration includes a small target diagram in the blank space for positional reference and morphological illustration. The diagrams are primarily distributed in Chapters 4, 6, and 8, as these chapters form the foundation and focus of the book. In later chapters, to avoid repetition, "See" is marked after each text entry to refer to previously presented diagrams. Additionally, some color photographs of palms were captured, but only a few were used for palm surface illustrations. The rest were set aside due to insufficient clarity, which could lead to errors. To ensure the text and illustrations are well-integrated and easy to read, brief qualitative descriptions are provided below each diagram.
