520    "The major market need for this book comes from the fact 
       that the bulk of the literature on psychological 
       assessment focuses on individual tests, rather than the 
       process of using tests as part of an overall integrative 
       assessment process.  The author has taught many Ph.D. 
       students psychological assessment and supervised students 
       taught by other professors, and it is clear to him that 
       while interpretation of individual tests is relatively 
       consistent, the basic foundations of how to use test data 
       and how to integrate them into coherent and useful 
       narratives varies greatly from assessor to assessor 
       depending on their training.  Many students and 
       psychologists focus so much on adequate administration, 
       scoring, and interpretation of individual tests that 
       little attention is paid to the integration, 
       conceptualization, and write-up phases of the process.  
       This book provides concrete examples to illustrate how to 
       navigate this process, which is too often left to chance."
