Introducing Psychoanalysis - Tapa blanda

Using cartoon imagery, key themes are explained in the concept of psychoanalysis. Despite anti-Freud literature, little is known about contemporary psychoanalysis and this book redresses that balance in both its theory and clinical practice.

Introducing Psychoanalysis asks important questions like: Why was Freud so interested in sex? How does analysis work? Psychoanalytic terms such as Ego, libido and neurosis have become a part of our everyday vocabulary. But what is modern psychoanalysis? This book introduces psychoanalysis as a unified theory of the unconscious with a variety of different approaches. It is one of the few books to connect psychoanalysis to daily life and common understanding of the world.
