About this Item

XX; 482; XXIV Seiten; 21,5 cm. Gutes Ex.; Umschlag berieben u. m. kl. Läsuren. - Englisch. - William Healy, Augusta F. Bronner u. Anna Mae Bowers. - THE STRUCTURE AND MEANING OF PSYCHOANALYSIS, which has gone through eight printings since it was first published in 1930, is the only book of its kind to survey the literature of psychoanalysis. It has been called "a Baedeker of the whole psychoanalytical movement," because it gives the definitions and points of view of every significant contributor to the movement from Freud through Adler, Jung, and Rank to many contemporary psychoanalysts. The organization of these sources, frequently quoted or paraphrased, is unique. On the left-hand pages are given the orthodox theories of psychoanalysis, consisting for the most part of Freud's own statements. On the right-hand pages, in smaller type, are presented valuable exegetical paragraphs and various ideas set forth by psychoanalysts who hold to the major concepts of Freud but differ from him in minor matters of theory or practice. In the endeavor to keep the exposition unbiased, the authors refrain from offering any criticisms of their own. A detailed index enhances the value of their survey. The practicing psychoanalyst or psychiatrist, the student, and the interested lay reader will find here the sources of psychoanalytic theory and a clear exposition of their bearing upon problems of personality and human conduct.
