Essentials of Rorschach This is a good overview book, it isn't perfect, but not bad to get your feet wet. For $30...a pretty good deal.
The Rorschach This is probably the book you will use. I'm not really a fan. I did better with the Essentials book, and the Spiral Maroon Book (since I can't remember the name). I think it may be the manual? I always used it for scoring, though after awhile you just get use to the standard answers...though if you get a psychotic person, watch out....you'll be whipping through that book trying to code it.
Personally I don't much like the 2nd book listed, but it seems popular. Part of it is my bias towards the Extner system, I think the research is pretty weak that supports it. I am a big believer in a more traditional psychodynamic interpretation for use IN therapy, not as part of a battery of assessments. I think as a pure assessment measure it is weak, I believe it is better utilized as grist or the mill of therapy, not as 'proof' of anything.
