"With their tight plots, the stories are&#160;particularly cinematic, and film-makers&#160;are already showing interest. Dard also&#160;wrote screenplays and plays.

“Subjectivity in Motion is an unconventional book about an unconventional personality. [...] In highly nuanced pages Akavia succeeds in avoiding a 'narrative of influence,' showing on the one hand, how Swiss psychiatrists responded to French and German traditions; on the other, how Rorschach found his own peculiar voice within this rich, provocative, often contentious intellectual environment. [...] Naamah Akavia’s book is based on solid, detailed archival research, but deliberately avoids academic jargon and technicalities. [...] Anybody interested in the history of XXth century psychiatry, psychology, and psychoanalysis, as well as of XXth century avant garde movements, will find rich food for thought in this fascinating case study.” - Carlo Ginzburg, Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa
“In Subjectivity in Motion: Life, Art, and Movement in the Work of Hermann Rorschach, Dr. Akavia has produced a wholly original account of the historical conditions within which Rorschach produced his famous inkblot test. In her hands the test becomes a probe for exploring the meaning of movement, not only for psychiatry and experimental psychology, but for aesthetics in the visual arts, such as painting and dance. [...] Akavia enables us to see in analytic detail, but also in broad perspective, how Rorschach’s inkblot ‘experiment’ was anchored both in his clinical experience with specific patients and in the widely-discussed contemporary theme of movement, placed always between freedom and constraint.” - M. Norton Wise, Distinguished Professor, Department of History; Co-Director, Center for Society and Genetics, UCLA
"An extraordinary work of scholarship, this book is nevertheless compulsively readable.It completely changes our usual understanding and evaluation of Hermann Rorschach, who was so much more than the ingenious author of a now controversial ‘projective test.’Dr. Akavia puts his work into a surprisingly fresh cultural and historical context, greatly adding to our appreciation of Rorschach’s creative work and the breadth of his vision. This fascinating revisiting of an often overlooked period in the history of medicine, psychology, the arts, and ideas deserves a wide readership." - Robert R. Holt, PhD, Professor Emeritus, New York University
"This is a remarkable book, its range of topics discussed not fully revealed by its title. I learned a great deal about Herrman Rorschach's work that goes far beyond his 'invention' of the Rorschach Ink-blot test. The chapters on Rorschach's discussion of schizophrenia and on movement in art alone are well worth the price of the book. They, along with the rest of the book, are insightful and fascinating." - Morris Eagle, PhD.ABPP, Professor Emeritus, Derner Institute of Advanced Psychoplogical Studies, Adelphi University, New York; Distinguished Educator-in-Residence, California Lutheran University
"Akavia’s scholarship is demonstrably brilliant on several levels and simply cannot be adequately described in this short critique." —Gabriel V. Rupp, Kristofer Thompson, Keia Atkinson, PsycCRITIQUES
