About this ebook
Freud sets forth with a frankness almost startling the difficulties and limitations of psychoanalysis, and also describes its main methods and results as only a master and originator of a new school of thought can do. These discourses are at the same time simple and almost confidential, and they trace and sum up the results of thirty years of devoted and painstaking research. While they are not at all controversial, we incidentally see in a clearer light the distinctions between the master and some of his distinguished pupils. A text like this is the most opportune and will naturally more or less supersede all other introductions to the general subject of psychoanalysis. It presents the author in a new light, as an effective and successful popularizer, and is certain to be welcomed not only by the large and growing number of students of psychoanalysis in this country but by the yet larger number of those who wish to begin its study here and elsewhere.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A solid Freud totem based on a series of lectures that were, seemingly, transcribed. This is pure Freud and the introduction really puts what you are reading in context. It is about the ideas, the endless flow of discovery about the inception of his field, that distinguishes and highlights Freud's work. Whether or not it was truthful is besides the point, what remains is still strong enough to stand on, point the way, guide, and surprise the reader.4 stars- well earned!
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Male chauvinist. Nothing closet about him at all. The wonder is that he is still given any credence. If ever there was advice to be applied to the "teacher", it would be this:
Physician, heal thyself. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book is collection of lectures held by Sigmund Freud in front of all those interested in psychoanalysis - doctors and laymen alike.Book is divided into three sections - omissions, dreams and their interpretation (hardest but without doubt the most important part of the book) and finally neurosis and general overview of [psychoanalysis] practice.What I like about Freud's writing is that he does not go around "beating the bush" but goes straight to the point. This book is just an overview of foundation of psychoanalysis, its main fields of interests and short overview of problems encountered during the practice (of which practice itself is [and especially in those days was] the greatest issue itself).Highly recommended.
