Multiple Personality (Classic Reprint): An Experimental Investigation Into the Nature of Human Individuality: An Experimental Investigation Into the Nature of Human Individuality (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Explore how the mind builds itself piece by piece and why some minds split into distinct personalities.
This nonfiction work traces the idea that what looks like a single person is really a system of smaller, interacting parts. It connects everyday mental life to the structures of the nervous system, showing how moment-to-moment consciousness arises from many background processes. Readers will see how early forms of organization in neurons relate to higher mental life, including memory, perception, and instinct.
The author explains complex ideas with clear examples, from how habits become automatic to how consciousness and subconsciousness influence each other. It also introduces practical concepts like how attention, learning, and perception shape our sense of self, and why some identities can temporarily take the lead.
- How individuals are built from many smaller parts and how this shapes personality
- How neuron structure and biological development mirror mental life
- How automatic actions form through practice and changing attention
- How the mind uses a “minimum of consciousness” to function efficiently
Ideal for readers curious about the science of the mind, memory, perception, and the roots of personality division.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating and often perplexing world of multiple personality. The author explores this complex phenomenon through the lens of neuroscience and evolutionary theory, examining how the structure of the nervous system influences the organization of consciousness and, in turn, the development of distinct personalities within a single individual. Drawing upon extensive research and observations of patients with multiple personalities, the author presents a groundbreaking analysis of the relationship between neural organization and mental life. The book examines how the nervous system, which itself is comprised of a complex network of interconnected units, mirrors the structure of consciousness. The author's meticulous exploration of neuron organization in various animal species provides a unique framework for understanding how the development of more complex nervous systems coincides with the emergence of distinct and even multiple personalities. The book explores how the evolution of consciousness, from simple sensations to more complex perceptual and representational systems, parallels the evolution of the nervous system. The book ultimately offers a profound understanding of the interconnectedness between the physical structure of the nervous system and the complexities of human consciousness.
