Synopsis

Donna Reid Connell, educator, has served as a county and state consultant and taught at all levels, preschool through college.

This author lays the blame not on doctors for the thousands of fatal medical mistakes made each year, but on inadequate and outmoded handwriting instruction in today’s schools. She offers solutions.

Dr. Barbara Nemko, Superintendent, county schools – In today’s fast-paced world we don’t use quill pens and oak galls for ink. So why are we still using 300-year-old handwriting techniques? Dr. Connell makes a compelling case for change.

Robert E. Nasser, M. D. – As Dr. Connell points out, the problem lies not with the physicians, but with the methods with which schools teach handwriting. A remedial writing class is a concept for which I can recommend many colleagues.

Dr. J. Win Payne, Past President of the American Association of School Administrators – Changing handwriting instruction count improve the handwriting of future doctors as well as that of all the younger generation.

James M Talcott, M. D. – Cursive writing is the curse of the medical profession.

Ronald E. Julis, M. D. – I’m proud to inspire someone to wrote a book, yet embarrassed that one of my least impressive traits, my illegible handwriting, contributed to that inspiration.
