Short concise story of professional career of founder of psycho-analysis. You will not find some mysteries from his private life here - only elements from his professional career that led to establishment of psycho-analysis as a way of treating and better understanding of human psyche.[return][return]Very interesting, recommended.

I think it's important to understand the historical context of Freud. What ideas he was responding to, how he situated his body of work in the history of science, and looking forward, what he thought his contributions would amount to. Because the standard caricature of him is removed from this context, we get the picture of him as the guy who said that you want to fuck your mom. That isn't the historical Freud.

"I was thus led into regarding the neuroses as being without exception disturbances of the sexual function, the so-called 'actual neuroses' being the direct toxic expression of such disturbances and the psychoneuroses their mental expression. My medical conscience felt pleased at my having arrived at this conclusion"

hahaha, bless him.
