Answers

You can probably find case material in one of the case study books that accompany the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders or in an abnormal psychology/psychopathology textbook. Amnesia is associated with a variety of disorders that include organic syndromes as well as PTSD and some neurotic disorders. If you use the search terms "amnesia" "DSM" and "case study" you'll find good information on the internet.
