Viac o knihe

The book explores the surge in diagnosed dissociative disorders, particularly multiple personality disorder (MPD), over the past twenty-five years, linking it to the prevalence of child sexual abuse. Philosopher Ian Hacking examines the moral and political implications of this epidemic, addressing the contentious debates around memory and the potential for false memories. Through this lens, he critically analyzes how society grapples with psychological trauma and the power dynamics involved in understanding and treating these complex issues.
