This book by Ganellen is an excellent resource for two of the personality assessment classes I teach at the graduate level. Integrating MMPI-2 and Rorschach findings is a critical aspect of good assessment, and this book is an outstanding resource in helping the reader effectively integrate the two instruments. It uses well-selected and instructive cases to highlight the processes involved. I would recommend it highly to anyone interested in this topic--for teaching or for practicing psychological assessment. A must read. Hale Martin, Ph.D.

Very simply this is the best resource book on integration of the Rorschach and MMPI-2. Scholarly, very well researched, and well reasoned, this book assists clinicians with the complexities of working with the two most highly studied personality tests, offering a clear and comprehensive basis for what each test can and cannot do. Be sure to read the glowing Editorial Reviews above, written by some of the top scholars on both the Rorschach and MMPI-2.

This book has more case studies than useful chapters for learning how to integrate the Rorschach and MMPI. The case studies do all the work for you instead of leading you through it or allowing you to do it for yourself. Not useful for my assessment course, I felt.
