Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In what ways can psychology bridge the gap between normal and abnormal mental life? Professor Peter McKellar believes that the words `experience and `behaviour provide on answer: what men and women do, their behaviour, becomes more understandable when we know more about their experience. This book provides a guide to understanding psychological phenomena which are, or seem to be, abnormal. It also examines the relation of these to subjective experiences of people we regard as normal, this emphasizing the continuity between normal and abnormal mental life. Reflecting the recent revival in interest in dissociation of the personality, rather than thinking of a single `Unconscious, Professor McKellar examines the rich variety of subjective experiences: hypnagogic imagery, imaginary companions, deja vu, synaesthesia, illusions of waking while still asleep, and lucid dreams when there is a co-conscious awareness of being asleep and dreaming. He discusses seemingly supernatural interpretations and `spirit possessions beliefs about multiple personality and dissociation. Professor McKellar brings to his analysis the perspectives of anthropology and the history of ideas, especially within science and philosophy. He argues that `the psychologist character in literature has frequently shown the way to the scientific psychologist: writers like Dostoevsky, Cervantes, Melville, Poe and Coleridge have drawn on introspection as well as observation in creating their characters and insights. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Hardback octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), minor edgewear jacket, minimal toning endpapers. 188 pp. Peter McKellar, a New Zealand psychology professor who has done important research on imagination and multiple personality for many years, reveals the results of his work and argues that dissociation must now be given its rightful place in psychology. He offers new explanations in terms of multiple personality for a number of phenomena - such as demonic possession, automatic writing, remote sensing - and so gives a normal explanation to what have often been described as paranormal experiences. Since even the so-called normal personality is shown to be really a system of sub-selves, we all experience dissociation when defined broadly. SCARCE.
