- Freud's theories of the unconscious, neurosis, repression, the ego, and so on revolutionized the way in which we think about ourselves
- Freud's influence extends far beyond psychology and psychiatry — he is studied in philosophy, literary theory, and cultural studies courses, for example
- Anthony Storr is one of the most important writers on the subject
Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) revolutionized the way in which we think about ourselves. From its beginnings as a theory of neurosis, Freud developed psycho-analysis into a general psychology which became widely accepted as the predominant mode of discussing personality and interpersonal relationships.Readership: Readers interested in Freud's personality, theories, or influence, or in psychoanalysis and therapy more generally; students of psychology, philosophy, literary theory, cultural studies, and the history of ideas.
