The Plural Self

With the emergence of postmodern thinking there has been a rise of interest in pluralistic models of the `self' in which the person is conceptualized as a multiplicity of subpersonalities as a plurality of existential possibilities or as a `being' which is inextricably in-dialogue-with-others.With contributions from foremost writers on self-pluralism The Plural Self critiques this emerging field. Drawing together theory research and practice the book expands on both the psychological and philosophical theories underlying and associated with self-pluralism and presents empirical evidence in support of the self-pluralistic perspective exploring its application within a clinical and therapeutic setting.
