    About this ebook

    Sigmund Freud was a pioneer in the field of psychology, and his theories about the mind and behavior have had a significant impact on Western thought. In this book, you'll learn about Freud's groundbreaking work as the founder of psychoanalysis and his ideas about the unconscious mind, the Oedipus complex, the ego, and the superego. You'll also explore the influence of Freud's work on the development of other therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and discover how his ideas continue to be studied and debated by researchers and practitioners in the field. Despite being a controversial figure, Freud's work remains an important and widely-studied part of the history of psychology. This book offers a comprehensive and engaging look at the life and work of this influential thinker.
