Description

Excerpt from Ambidexterity, or Two-Handedness and Two-Brainedness: An Argument for Natural Development and Rational Education Having long been accustomed to write with either hand and to use the two hands interchangeably, I am quite in sympathy with the object of this Treatise. To train the human body completely and symmetrically, that is, to cultivate all its organs and members to their utmost capacity, in order that its functions may also attain their maximum development, is an obligation that cannot safely be ignored. This completeness and symmetry can only be secured by an equal attention to, and exercise of, both sides of the body - the right and the left; and this two-sided growth can alone be promoted and matured by educating our two hands equally, each in precisely the same way, and exactly to the same extent. It is hardly possible to lay too much stress upon this bimanual training, or to attach too much importance to the principle, because our hands - and our arms, from which, for purposes both of argument and education, they cannot be separated - not only constitute our chief medium of communication with the outer world, but they are like wise the pre-eminent agency by which we stamp our impress upon it. Moreover, and of equal import to the individual, it is by the movements of these members that the whole muscular tissues on both sides of the body are exercised, strengthened, and perfected.
