Synopsis

Alterations of Personality offers a clear, accessible look at how the sense of self can change within a single person. This classic work presents early, influential ideas on multiple personalities, subconscious action, and the science behind human memory and selfhood in plain language for general readers.

Framed by editor and author notes, the book surveys a wide range of phenomena—from spontaneous somnambulism to experimentally induced states—grounding discussion in careful observation and reported cases. It traces how normal memory and character can diverge, and how suggestion, habit, and attention shape what a person experiences as selfhood.

What you’ll experience
- A thorough introduction to the phenomena of altered personality and the methods used to study them.
- Explanations of how subconscious processes interact with conscious life and memory.
- Illustrative discussion of experiments and observations that illuminate the dynamics of will, habit, and suggestion.
- A historically important view of early psychology that influenced later research in hypnosis, perception, and identity.

Ideal for readers of psychology, brain science, and the history of ideas who want a foundational, non‑fiction look at how personality can vary within one life.
