Encyclopedia of the History of Psychological Theories
This surveys the entire range of thinking in psychology from ancient times to the present, encompassing philosophies and theories of mind that pre-date our modern conception of psychology as a science, and extending to the current findings of neuroscience.
Being Bad in Good Places: The Battle against Science and Psychiatry
This editorial is a critique of Lewis Menand's article which appeared in the march issue of the new Yorker of 2010. Unfortunately, his article misleads the public into believing that psychiatry and psychology are ill equipped to go into the human mind and heart. It also takes the position that psychology and psychiatry are not qualified to be considered a science, but it does this in such a way so as to tell the truth and nothing but the truth, b…

In today's world, psychopathy is becoming a norm and is sustained by social and political institutions. The article discusses the consequent crisis of psychology in Russia and the United States. A need to develop a unifyi…

The duality of the brain and the multiplicity of minds: Can you have it both ways
Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD), now known as Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), has been of great interest to the public for over a century. Case histories of MPD can be found in the literature as far back as the eighteenth century; nevertheless, publications from the latter part of the nineteenth century best describe this disorder as we know it today. This paper traces the case history literature of DID (MPD) from the earliest period to…

Hypnosis, false memory and multiple personality: A trinity of affinity
This paper presents a discussion of the relationship between hypnosis, false memory, and multiple personality. Since Morton Prince's classic case of multiple personality (Prince 1906), only two other cases rival Prince's original work (Thigpen and Cleckley 1957, Schreiber 1973) in popularity. This paper illustrates startling new material regarding the third most famous of multiple personality cases, that of Sybil. Tape recordings recently discove…

Psycho-Social Impacts of Terrorism and Organized Crime: The Counterfinality of the Practico-Inert

Collateral damage on the home front: The gulf in America
Combat casualties in the Persian Gulf War among Coalition troops were by all estimates miraculously low. However, the fallout of the war for many groups on the home front may have been more pernicious in the long term than expected or estimated.
