Description

Sigmund Freud: The Basics provides an accessible introduction to the life and ideas of Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis. This book offers a clear overview of Freud's early life and work, including his most famous patients and key concepts such as the Oedipus complex. Janet Sayers explores Freud's later work, discussing his observations on depression, trauma, and the death instinct, as well as his theory of the id, ego, and superego. The book also delves into how psychoanalysis has been applied to various fields, including art, literature, film, anthropology, religion, sociology, gender politics, and racism. Suitable for both students and general readers with an interest in psychology, Sigmund Freud: The Basics provides a helpful guide to understanding Freud's ideas and their interdisciplinary applications.
