World Authors Series - Sigmund Freud Revisited

"Emphasizing Freud's position as a scientist and as a physician trying to help sick patients, Richard W. Noland shows how the doctor's ideas developed over time, explicating how each new aspect of his overall theory is the result of ongoing clinical experience and theorizing. Noland's chronological analysis covers the totality of Freud's career and presents the material in such a way that a humanist can understand and make use of it: He makes this complicated material accessible to the reader who has not been trained in medicine, empirical science, or social science."--BOOK JACKET.
