The Divided Self: An Existential Study in Sanity and Madness - Penguin Modern Classics
R. D. Laing
Using case studies of patients the author had worked with, this title argues that psychosis is not a medical condition but an outcome of the 'divided self', or the tension between the two personas within us: one our authentic, private identity, and the other the false, 'sane' self that we present to the world.
