Abstract

Reports a purely descriptive case history on alcoholism. Description includes the development of a double personality in the S. Apart from memory, there was frequently a great difference between the two states, which was not seen in the character. Naturally, John was good natured, kind-hearted, generous and sympathetic. When in the 'sleeping' state, he became very surly. Also describes the therapeutic intervention in the form of hypnosis carried out thrice on the patient.
