Here for your delectation is theSPECTACULAR & RARE---------------WHEN RABBIT HOWLS: THE TROOPS FOR TRUDDI CHASE, Introduction and Epilogue by Robert A. Phillips, Jr., Ph.D.The strange world inhabited by those afflicted with schizophrenia or multiple personality syndrome is virtually impenetrable. By illuminating these convoluted worlds, this book makes major contributions to the understanding of mental illness. North began to exhibit manifestations of schizophrenia as a child. Desite her acceptance of "voices" and "visions" as reality, the reader can easily identify with her as she struggles through her schooling. She graphically descibes her breakdowns and traumatic hospitalizations during her college years and in medical school. Her eventual success in conquering her disability and attaining her goal of becoming a physician evokes a sense of exhilaration.Phillips, a Washington, D.C., therapist, explains that "The Troops" are the multiple personalities, approximately 80 men and women of the pseudonymous Truddi Chase, who first consulted him in 1980. He further maintains that the patient, a successful businesswoman now in her 50s, has been "asleep" since she was raped at the age of two by her stepfather, who continued to sexually abuse her for 14 years. The cluster of personalities, speaking through a troop member dubbed the "Recorder," talk about their suffering for the primary victim who, it is also revealed, was mistreated by her mother as well. There are sensational episodes described by beings identified as social Alvira, hard Nails, alert Gatekeeper and others. The book proves to be a convincing, affecting case study.This is the softcover statedJove Edition from April 1990.Both the c-o-o-l die-cut, embossed cover andthe bookare inexcellent condition.
