i was excited to buy a book about drawing hands but the drawings in this book ended up being strangely stunted and deformed. they look nothing like real hands. the artist isn't very good and the instruction is crude at best. it was a waste of money.

Can be an alternative (different views are always valuable) or an augmentation to Hogarth. The drawings are sketchy rather than firm.

My library could live without it, but it's nice to have.

This book is not for beginners. To understand this book you'll need to have a good understanding of the hand's anatomy, but if you already understand the hand then this book will be useless. Some pages are organized so on the left will be a description like "the pinky sticks out at this angle", then on the right will be an ink blot test looking drawing where you can't even see the pinky. A good alternative to this is Burne Hogarth's "Drawing Dynamic Hands".
