Product Description

These lectures were delivered by Freud during World War I. Never before, in the course of 30 years of lecturing at the University of Vienna, had he deliberately set down, with a view to publication, the full range of his theories and observations. This series, therefore, represents a stock-taking of psychoanalysis as it stood after the secession of Adler and Jung.

5.0 out of 5 stars a titan of modern thought, March 2, 2005
By Phil Myers (Brooklyn) - See all my reviews
This is the best introduction to Freud's ground-breaking psychological theories, now so much maligned and obscured by the apologists for the pharmaceutical stupefaction and mollification that now passes for psychiatry and keeps our bankrupt culture lurching forward.

It takes courage to read this book with an open mind, but if you do you can't but gain new insight into yourself and the people around you. The prose is delightful-- erudite, lucid, penetrating (ha!), and illustrated with beautifully observed examples from literature, history, and Freud's own life and practice.

5.0 out of 5 stars best intro to the thought of a great humanist, May 23, 2001
By Robert J. Crawford (Balmette Talloires, France) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Here you can witness Freud not as the straw man stereotype that so many despise but as a warm, humorous man with a great deal of vision. The man you encounter in this book is so different from what you would expect that I warmly recommend this to anyone with an inquiring mind.

He was a genius.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This is a great introduction to Freud's lectures and I'd recommend it to anyone interested in Freud's works and psycho-analysis. The book is very well translated and easy to read whether one has psych background or not.
