What is the Evidence that You Contain Multitudes?

A review of “Many Minds, One Self” by Schwartz and Falconer — I have an image of being a practical, no-nonsense kind of therapist to uphold. A certain sort of underserved clientele flock to me because they think the mental health world is glutted with flakiness. Should I really be telling them that they are inhabited by multitudes and get them to…
