Sigmund Freud

An Introduction

Edición de la obra Sigmund Freud

The book starts with Freud{u2019}s life before the discovery of psychoanalysis, spanning from 1856 to 1900, when The Interpretation of Dreams was published. The subsequent chapters are devoted to the presentation of the key notions of psychoanalysis. A chronological perspective shows how Freud's work has been constantly enriched by the successive contributions of Freud himself, as well as his successors. Freud{u2019}s contributions are also embedded in the daily, clinical practice of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy. The last chapter concerns Freud{u2019}s life from 1900 to 1939, the year of his death.
