Ambidexterity Advocate Promotes Bilateral Skill
John Jackson, founder of the Ambidextral Culture Society of Boston, urges parents to train children in using both hands. He cites brain development, reduced fatigue, and longer productive lifespans for two handed workers, noting examples like Sir Walter Parratt and General Baden-Powell. He argues education shapes handedness and that ambidexterity benefits labor and memory.
