FILE: HERMANN RORSCHACH 1. He was an "Art Kid": Before he was a psychiatrist, Rorschach wanted to be an artist. In school, he was obsessed with a game called Klecksography , which involved making inkblots on paper and folding them to create symmetrical shapes. That is literally where he got the nickname "Klecks." He didn't invent the inkblot; he just figured out how to use it to hack the human brain. 2. The "Brad Pitt" of Psychology: If you Google "Young Hermann Rorschach," be prepared to be shocked. The guy looked exactly like Brad Pitt. The resemblance is uncanny. He was incredibly charismatic and handsome. 3. The Tragic End: He published his famous book Psychodiagnostik in 1921. It was a flop. The publisher barely printed it, and the medical community ignored it. One year later, at age 37, Rorschach died of a burst appendix. He never saw his test become the most famous psychological tool in history. The 10 cards used today are the exact same 10 cards he hand-painted in 1921. They have never been changed. Wait... what do you see in this listing? If you see a set of rare psychology books, you are a savvy collector. If you see a butterfly fighting two bears, please consult Volume 2 immediately. About This Set For decades, the Rorschach test was the Wild West of psychology. One doctor would see "creativity" where another saw "psychosis." The test was in danger of becoming a parlor trick. Enter John Exner . In the 1970s, he did the impossible: he unified the five competing scoring methods into one single, rigorous standard known as the Comprehensive System . This 3-volume set is the definitive guide to that system. It turned an art form into a science.
