This volume continues an exemplary series in which most authors have successful/influential earlier volumes that have been optimally redone in a relatively consistent format for the series. Each book demonstrates a carefulness of focus on "essentials" for a standard reference oriented to students as well as professional assessors.

More specifically, the Teglasi volume is consistent with the entire series and of comparable quality with other volumes. The book will stimulate teaching of storytelling tests in professional psychology doctoral programs in a more responsible manner than heretofore. This book can potentially foster the usage of objective scores for the TAT and assist in restoration of its credibility for low inference interpretation by reducing a current vulnerability to criticism as a "projective interview" rather than a bona fide test.

I have just complete reading Hedi's book. It is without a doubt the best book on the use of story-telling techniques I have ever encountered. Hedi takes an art and makes it a science with both theoretical and empirical foundations and ties an old technique to modern views of information processing and assessment of problem solving. Well done! (Cecil R. Reynolds, PhD, ABPN, ABPP; Professor of Educational Psychology, Professor of Neuroscience Distinguished Research Scholar Texas A&M University)
