Psychoanalysis and the Unconscious

The book explores the evolution of psychoanalysis, highlighting its surprising shifts and the reactions it provokes. It discusses the transition from viewing sexuality as the root of human behavior to a focus on pure psychology. This shift not only unsettles the medical community, which had been wary of these new therapeutic approaches, but also signals a growing acceptance of professional psychology. The narrative delves into the complexities of human behavior and the ongoing debates within the field of psychoanalysis.
