A whole chapter on left-handers in Mark J. Penn's book - Microtrends: The Small Forces Behind Tomorrow's Big Changes

Who is Mark J. Penn? He is the CEO of public-relations firm Burson-Marsteller and chief advisor to the Presidential campaign of Senetor Hillary Clinton. Mr. Penn is credited with identifiying niche group 'Soccer Moms' while he was working with President Bill Clinton as a pollster more than a decade ago.

Diane Brady has reviewed Microtrends in the recent Business Week magazine (September 17, 2007). Here is the excerpt from the article - "Take the capter on Southpaws Unbound. As one whose tendency toward left-handedness was discouraged at Catholic schools n the 1970s, I was fascinated to see the documented rise in people who identify as left-handed, not to mention research that suggests kids born to women over 40 are 128% more likely to be lefties than those born to women in their 20s"

On a different note - Is there a need for Left-handers Portal?
