Reviews

Daniel Robinson, a renowned expert on the history and philosophy of psychology at Oxford, writes, I judge the project to be significant, and I am fully satisfied that the translation and annotations will be judged as of high quality. Richard Kluft, an international authority on multiple personality disorders at the Temple University School of Medicine, writes A translation and critical study of Despine's work would fill an important historical, theoretical, and clinical gap


As one of the earliest entries in what would become psychotherapy, Antoine Despine's monograph is of great significance for psychologists, psychiatrists, and historians of medicine and science. This fine translation brings Despine's seminal work to an English-language readership for the first time, contextualizing it with invaluable scholarly apparatus. - Daniel N. Robinson, Philosophy Faculty, Oxford University
