This work re-examines dissociation according to a new interpretation that recognizes historical roots without requiring commitment to the classical theory. It includes coverage of possession state, multiple personalities, amnesia and dreams.

For the introductory or general psychology course, this text has been the gold standard in the field for decades. Psychology is a dynamic field. This classic text captures the dynamic nature of contemporary psychology in 3 ways: (1) controversial issues are discussed in point/counterpoint essays in Contemporary Voices in Psychology boxes; (2) research is applied to real world problems in Frontiers of Psychological Research boxes; and (3) a biological orientation, a trend which is changing the way psychological topics are viewed, is exemplified by integrated bio-evolutionary research and coverage.
