Appreciation of the beauty and complexity of the human mind when perceiving an ambiguous stimulus led Dr. Hermann Rorschach to develop his scientific method eighty years ago. Full of gratitude for his brief life and work, the editors hope this volume will stand as an idiographic testament to his brilliance for the Rorschach students of the future. The contributors are clearly the most notable Rorschach clinicians in practice, and their work integrates the Comprehensive System and psychoanalytic methods. This book is organized into four sections. Within each of the first three sections -- devoted to psychotic, borderline, and neurotic disorders respectively -- the editors and invited authors have contributed Rorschach case studies which vertically cut a character pathology, personality disorder, or clinical diagnosis through a particular level of personality organization. The last section charts the enormously varied course that Rorschach work can navigate -- from the understanding of a Nobel laureate, the pain of trauma and transexuality, and the Nazi perversion of youth, to the consensus Rorschach in couple's therapy and cutting edge work in neuropsychology.

Jimmy Murray and Tommy Lake grew up together in post war Jersey City. The experiences they shared, during the winter and spring of 1959, would cement their relationship for a lifetime.

Bored with the routines of normal adolescent existance, Jim and Tom began exploring the endless railroad system, which once occupied Jersey City and the surrounding Meadowlands. Their adventures became progressively more dangerous, often threatening their lives. Unconcerned, the young duo tempted fate regularly, while continuously seeking the ultimate adrenalin rush.

Matters reach a new level of intrigue when two young girls become involved in their escapades. Their love interests force a stabilizing effect on the two friends, but tranquility is short lived. Eventually, Tom clashes with a mysterous character called Hutchaneene, and Jim decides that revenge is in order.

Filled with incredible adventures, graphic details and tough dialogue, "Tunnels" will transport the reader into their past and trigger emotions not felt since their own adolescent years. "Tunnels" will be difficult to put down, especially for anyone who wants to re-ignite the spirit of adventure smoldering in their soul!

"Tunnels" includes twenty-two illustrations by North Carolina resident Carolyn DeMorest Serrano. Beautifully drawn, each illustration compliments the story by recapturing the "Lost World" of old Jersey City.
