Primarium: Handwriting Education Across Cultures and Continents

The story

Primarium comprehensively documents Latin-based handwriting education across 40 countries.

Based on extensive, groundbreaking research over several years, this 360 page volume reveals how local history, cultural factors, and educational reforms have shaped diverse handwriting models. It identifies common challenges faced by educators and summarizes key findings by examining entrenched misconceptions, modern policy changes, and global influences.
