Sigmund Freud: Pocket Biographies

In recent times, both the man, and the discipline he invented – psychoanalysis – have come under a re-evaluation on both sides of the Atlantic. This book depicts Freud’s life and ideas, from his birth above a blacksmith’s forge in a secluded corner of the Austro-Hungarian empire to his death in London in 1939, where he had come as a refugee from Nazi Europe.
