The present volume contains Parts I and II of a larger work, "Problems in Abnormal Psychology," but it is complete in itself. It is a study of disintegrated personality, as exemplified by the very remarkable case of Miss Beauchamp. In this study I have (a) traced the development of the different personalities which originated through the disintegration of the normal self, and (b) shown their psychological relations to one another and to the normal self. By giving (c) a detailed account of the daily life of the personalities, after the manner of a biography, I have sought to show their behavior to the environment and the way in which a disintegrated personality can adapt itself to the circumstances of life, and how it fails to do so. While I have sought to interpret the various phenomena observed in ways which seem to me to be the logical inductions from the observations herein recorded, and from the established data of abnormal psychology, my first aim has been to secure the accuracy of the observations themselves.
