Description
This concise, accessible introduction explores Sigmund Freud’s revolutionary account of the human mind and the origins of psychoanalysis. Anthony Storr examines Freud’s major ideas—including the unconscious, dream interpretation, sexuality, and the dynamics of personality—while assessing their influence and continuing relevance in modern psychology and culture. He also considers Freud’s life and character through the lens of the theories he developed, offering a balanced portrait of both the thinker and his enduring legacy. Written with clarity and critical insight, the book is an inviting guide for readers new to Freud and to the broader questions raised by psychoanalytic thought.
