The Stranger in the Mirror: Dissociation – The Hidden Epidemic, written by Marlene Steinberg and Maxine Schnall is a book which goes through case files of individuals with dissociative identity disorder, who have suffered traumatizing happenings and how they have employed dissociation as a defense mechanism to detach themselves from the emotional stimuli which the victims endured.
