"This volume, edited by Valerie Sinason who has campaigned tirelessly to get the voices of multiple selves heard, brings together many well known and respected experts to share their perspectives on the still partially understood topic of dissociation in relation to trauma and multiplicity. Recommended for all those interested in furthering their understanding of the many aspects of themselves and others." - Fiona C. Kennedy, GreenWood Mentors Ltd, Formerly Head of Psychology Services, Isle of Wight NHS, UK
"This work seeks to help readers under-stand themselves as well as others, making it not only useful for mental health profession-als but also for anyone who wants to gain more perspective on their identity, self, and dissociation." - Alla Malovichko, Somatic Psychotherapy Today, Fall 2012
