Book 64 - Richard Appignanesi "Introducing Freud: A Graphic Guide"

Richard Appignanesi "Introducing Freud: A Graphic Guide" (Icon Books)






Freud revolutionized the way we think about ourselves. His psychoanalytic terms such as Id, Ego, libido, neurosis and Oedipus Complex have become a familiar part of our everyday vocabulary. But do we know what they really mean?

Freud for Beginners successfully demystifies the facts of Freud's discovery of psychoanalysis. Irreverent and witty but never trivial, the book tells the story of Freud's life and ideas from his upbringing in nineteenth century Vienna, his early medical career and his encounter with cocaine to the gradual evolution of his theories on the unconscious, dreams and sexuality. With its combination of brilliantly clever artwork and incisive text, Freud for Beginners has achieved international success as one of the most entertaining and informative introductions to the father of psychoanalysis.

Just think how much easier life would have been if Freud had been a baker. LOL..........
