A must-read classic,
By random reader (Long Beach, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Three Case Histories (Paperback)
This book should be required reading in all high schools. For me it was an epiphany. Especially the Wolf Man case history. The book was written in clear language with no psychobabble or medical jargon.
Here are some interesting things to be found in the book: 1: OCD symptoms actually represent repressed wishes to commit murder. 2: There is such a thing as a reverse Oedipus complex where a boy wants to identify with his mother and love his father. 3: The essential nature of psychosis is a regression to pure self-love. 4: Vladimir Nabokov based his book "Lolita" on a section of the "Rat Man" case history. 5: Peter Schaffer based his play *EQUUS* on "Wolf Man."

Three Case Histories by Sigmund Freud,
This review is from: Three Case Histories (Paperback)
Outstanding volume. Well worth the price, for those with an interest in the scientific-analytical work of the father of modern psychology.
