Customer Reviews

The only Rorschach interpretation book you'll ever need.

This book is, without question, the best book on Rorschach interpretation I have ever seen. Highly recommended. Weiner uses Exner's structural summary as the foundation, then incorporates Schafer's psychoanalytic approach for the interpretation of thematic imagery and idiosyncratic contents. Excellent integration of structural summary, thematic imagery, test behavior, and sequential analysis approaches. In addition to translating Exner's often stilted language into much more clinically useful language, the chapter on sequential analysis is worth the price of the book on its own. Excellent case presentations integrating the interpretive principles presented earlier close out the book. A must-have book for anyone who wants to make better sense of all the data provided by the Rorschach method.

Excellent source for anyone interested in the Rorschach

This book conveys in a clear language the complexities of the Rorschach interpretation. The case examples provide a very good practice for grasping what is essential. I would recommend this book to anyone involved with the Rorschach interpretation. Will never be without it.
