An excellent, well written, concise, comprehensive and clear introduction for professionals and lay people as well, curious about and interested in understanding drawings. Actually, the best book I have read in the field. I especially appreciate, that it offers GUIDELINES in interpretating pictures, without presuming to have/posess a set of rigid assumptions about the exact meaning of any of the components (size, color, figure, motion etc.). It is a book, which, however, must be read several times, most of all because of the amount of information it containes. It is an absolute MUST, for everbody, fascinated about and deligthed in deciphering the (mostly) hidden world of our uncounscius Psyche!!!!

This book opened up my child's world to me in a way that I hadn't expected. Even if you are uncertain of the efficacy of picture interpretaion, this book offers wonderful insight into family dynamics.

One of the best books I have ever read!

This was a great book for beginners in art therapy. It explained the basics and was easy to read. One has a good explanation of what to look at and how to identify what the artist is saying through his/her art. This book gets a big "OK" from me.
