Fingerology : the compolet guide to the finters

The complete guide to the fingers. Kener and Zeide remind us just how valuable and versatile our fingers really are, discussing the important roles which fingers play in everything from medicine to music and sports to surgery. For instance, some people, like fortune-tellers and palm readers, make money off of the fingers, while others, like the police, catch criminals and confirm identities with the use of fingerprinting. Doctors utilize alpha-numeric conbinations to keep track of the fingers during operations, just as pianists number their fingers (one thru five on each hand) while practicing to simplify difficult maneuvers.
