The Inkblots

I have always been fascinated how the mind works. People think it is such a simple thing. It is clearly not.

I remember doing the inkblots in school at one time, and in an actual counseling session. I remember my counselor asking: "What do you see?" Afraid to say what I was seeing, or lack thereof, whether I would be wrong or not, was something that always made me ponder.

While this book is very meaty in terms of the story behind Hermann Rorschach, it was very interesting to learn the history behind the man, and the reasoning behind the inkblots.

Some people will either find this work of literature boring, others too in-depth, and yet others completely overwhelmed. 

Those that have studied psychology will either agree, disagree, or agree to disagree.
