Dissociation challenges many comfortable assumptions. Dissociative
phenomena are often stark, extreme, and vivid. The identities of
individuals with dissociation disorders shift between apparent
opposites. Their pain is ignored. Trauma victims report floating
above their injured bodies. Are these arcane, dramatic, or staged
events, or does dissociation underlie some fundamental aspect of
mental organization& #63; Is dissociation the product of a
troubled mind or a key to understanding the structure of
consciousness and the mind-body relationship& #63;
"Dissociation: Culture, Mind, and Body" is the first book to
combine cultural anthropology, cognitive psychology,
neurophysiology, and the study of psychosomatic illness to present
the latest information on the dissociative process. A variety of
leading experts in each of these fields bring their knowledge on
the unique role that dissociation plays in moderating social and
psychological effects on the body. "Dissociation: Culture, Mind,
and Body" is an invaluable resource for every student of
dissociation and is designed for professionals in cross-cultural
psychiatry and the influence of the mind on the body.
"Dissociation: Culture, Mind, and Body" includes New theories of
dissociation New measures of dissociation New evidence of the
physical effects of dissociative processes
