Dissociation Clinical and Theoretical Perspectives

An authoritative reference, this unusually comprehensive volume covers the major aspects of dissociation-from the predominant models, diagnostic, and treatment approaches, to significant research, clinical, and conceptual issues. It confronts many of the controversies and debates surrounding the topic, such as whether recalled memories are facts or pseudomemories and the incidence of MPD. Editors discuss the latest research, providing clinical examples and practical suggestions. Founded on research and grounded in theory, this volume is an important addition to the scholarly literature. This text will be welcomed by any mental health professional who encounters or is interested in dissociative disorders. A useful primary reference for researchers, it will also inform students of psychotherapy in a broad range of helping professions.Lynn, Steven Jay is the author of 'Dissociation Clinical and Theoretical Perspectives' with ISBN 9780898621860 and ISBN 0898621860.
