Analyzing Character; the New Science of Judging Men; Misfits in Business, the Home and Social Life Arthur Newcomb

Analyzing Character is a treatise upon the fascinating and valuable art of analyzing human character. It makes no attempt to teach, as such, the technical principles upon which this art is based. It is, rather, an attempt to familiarize the reader with the most important of these by the inductive method--by means of incidents and descriptions from our records and from the biographies of well-known men. Some effort has been made, also, to give the reader the benefit of the authors' experience and observation in vocational counsel, employment, and salesmanship. Katherine M. H. Blackford, M. D. was a pioneering writer on human resources. She wrote on "character expert", which went into many editions. Arthur Newcomb edited and co-authored several books with Blackford. He became the director of the Blackford School of Character Analysis in New York City.
