More about the book
The book presents a groundbreaking revision of psychoanalytic theory, shifting from the traditional drive-defence model to an information processing approach. It posits that the fundamental human need is self-knowledge rather than mere pleasure-seeking, suggesting that drives serve as tools to achieve this deeper understanding. This reorientation challenges Freudian concepts and offers a contemporary framework for psychoanalysis and psychodynamic psychotherapy, emphasizing the importance of cognitive processes in human motivation and behavior.
