i read this book many years ago. my mother read it along with a whole troop of other books on different mental illnesses. i think she was searching for answers for herself. this book helped me a lot.. scared me a lot as well, when i read it again as i first started to accept my own multiple personalities. it was a very interesting book --i loved reading from the doctor's perspective and found it to be quite honest.

I read this book when it first came out. I just ordered a copy here today. I think it is an excellent book. Multiple Personality Disorder MPD is a very very strange condition. This book gives a first hand account of a psychologist working with patients having the same. It is in a very readable style and an easy read. I had dated a Multiple a short time before I read this book, and it gives you insights into things you see, but you can not believe. For instance, my girlfriend was in her early thirties. When we had an argument one day, she spun around my family room like a little child. Then she sat on my lap and started to cry. She looked about 4 years old. Even the little "crows feet" in the corners of her eyes were gone. I said to her, "You don't look the same." She said, "I have many faces." And so she did, as well as many different voices. There are some "dark" sides to many multiples, and you should be aware of that also. This book helped me sort it all out, and again it is an easy read.

This was a terrible book.
