That's easy. Right here. I turned TIPS off when I went on vacation early

Although Mr. Esterson will probably disagree, I believe "The White Hotel" by
D.M. Thomas is an excellent novel that is expository of Freud's thinking and

British Medical Journal regarding the relationship of his novel
Well, it's only "novel-like" and would be a stretch for maybe personality or

I'm not sure it is general enough for Personality but, "The Curious Incident of
the Dog in the Night-Time" by Haddon is pretty good in its presentation of
Autism/Aspergers. Of course, the inaccuracies would also lead to good
discussion. I did find the autobiographical "Send in the Idiots" by Na
I taught "Autobiography of a Face" by Lucy Grealy once, and students liked it a
lot. This would be good for either social or health. "Muscle: Confessions of an
Unlikely Bodybuilder," by Samuel Fussell, is also a truly amazing read and

"Set this House in Order" by Matt Ruff is a novel about two multiple
personalities who meet and (sorta) fall in love. It is quirky and
not necessarily psychologically accurate - but it does give some
insights into what having MPD might be like. Plus, its just fun

Hello All,
I have been incorporating novel-like books as supplementary reading into some

A student sent me this article of a Genie-like case from Florida. The
