Description
The Myth of Sanity: Divided Consciousness and the Promise of Awareness
A groundbreaking analysis of childhood trauma, dissociation, and multiple personality in everyday life, this book reveals that moderate dissociation is a normal mental reaction to pain.
Through astonishing stories of people whose lives have been shattered by trauma and then remade, The Myth of Sanity shows us how to recognize altered mental states in friends and family, even in ourselves. A landmark study on human consciousness, this book offers new insights into the complexities of the human mind.
