An excellent resource about psychopathology and about the Rorschach. Highly recommended. Graduate students, researchers, faculty, professionals.

The volume is intended as a diagnostic tool for both young and experienced practitioners already familiar with the RIT to use in assessing personality disorders. More volumes like this one are needed if the RIT is to be recognized again as a major instrument among all psychologists rather than the small segment of avid users who have continued to promote the RIT.

What a wonderful addition to our clinical assessment library! Here is a book that integrates the most venerable of our diagnostic instruments, the RIM, with our profession's most recently featured class of psychological entities, the personality disorders. This timely and authoritative review of cutting-edge RIM research provides a unique contribution to the psychological literature. Moreover, it will be an indispensable resource for practicing clinicians and graduate students alike. Both groups of readers will find the extensive and detailed case studies to be an invaluable model for psychodiagnostic evaluations. Three cheers to the authors for their exemplary contributions to the renaissance of the RIM.

One of the things the Rorschach does best is to describe the constellation of styles that--at their pathological extremes--can get people into difficulty in their day-to-day lives. This immensely satisfying book draws together most of what we know about the Rorschach assessment of personality disorder. It begins and ends with a group of perspective-taking chapters that orient us to the interaction of personality disorder, the Rorschach, psychodynamic theory, and clinical science. And in the middle, Dr. Huprich has assembled a group of authors who do a consistently excellent job of illustrating how the Rorschach functions across the spectrum of personality disorders. As both research summary and clinical handbook, Rorschach Assessment of the Personality Disorders fills an important niche.
