Book description
This volume brings together Freud's main contributions to the
psychology of love. His illuminating discussions of the ways in which
sexuality is always psychosexuality - that there is no sexuality
without fantasy, conscious or unconscious - have changed the ways we
think about erotic life. In these papers Freud develops his now famous
theories about the sexuality of childhood and the transgressive nature
of human desire.
In the famous case study of the eighteen-year-old 'Dora', we see
Freud at work, both putting into practice and testing his sexual
theories that were to change the modern world.
Sigmund Freud was born in 1856 and died in exile in London in 1939.
As a writer and doctor he remains one of the great voices of the
twentieth century.
