Freud, Peter Gay (psychoanalysis, psychology, libido, subconsciousness, iceberg)

As the founder of Psychoanalysis, Freud tremendously boosted the development of psychology and provided important theoretical support for Western humanities in the 20th century. He was followed by a great many and opposed by many others. But how on earth did an important figure like Freud spend his life? The author of this book read through almost all the literature on Freud, and as a result reproduced his whole life and academic journey. We will not only get to know Freud as a person, but also get a glimpse of the true essence of psychoanalysis.
