Freudian Psychology

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) reveals himself in this autobiography, which is simultaneously an account of the early history of psychoanalysis, to have been an outsider from the start. This fascinating account describes the journey of a young, Jewish doctor setting out to find his way in the world of professional medicine, his relationships and collaborations, friendships made and lost and his investigations into cocaine, hypnosis and the cathartic method which contributed to the evolution of his conceptual framework and practices.

One of Freud's central achievements was to demonstrate how unacceptable thoughts and feelings are repressed into the unconscious, from where they continue to exert a decisive influence over our lives. This volume contains a key statement about evidence for the unconscious and how it works, as well as major essays on all the fundamentals of mental functioning. Freud explores how we are torn between the pleasure principle and the reality principle, how we often find ways both to express and to deny what we most fear and why certain men need fetishes for their sexual satisfaction.

In Racial Melancholia, Racial Dissociation critic David L. Eng and psychotherapist Shinhee Han draw on case histories from the mid-1990s to the present to explore the social and psychic predicaments of Asian American young adults from Generation X to Generation Y.

While C. G. Jung had a natural intuitive understanding of the transference and countertransference, his lack of a "coherent method and clinical technique for working with transference and his ambivalence and mercurial attitude to matters of method," have, in the words of therapist and Jungian scholar Jan Wiener, sometimes left Jungians who are eager to hone their knowledge and skills in this area "floundering and confused."

Es con Freud —al cabo de dos o tres mil años—cuando se vuelve a justipreciar el sueño como un acto revelador del destino. Una vez más la psicología abisal ha reconocido un orden allí donde las otras sólo veían un caos, un movimiento agitado e incoherente: lo que a sus antecesores parecía un laberinto inextricable, sin principio ni final, para ella es la via regia, el amino real, que enlaza la vida inconsciente con la consciente. El sueño es el intermediario entre el mundo de nuestros sentimientos ocultos y el que está sometido al conocimiento.

In And It Was All Your Fault, the author and humanistic psychologist Roman Gelperin will teach you all about the little-known causes, cures, and unseen inner psychology of depression. Having personally experienced depression, consumed all the best literature and research on the subject, and for a year-and-a-half even dated a girl with a long history of depression while writing this book, the author weaves introspection, interpersonal observation, and cutting-edge research into a masterful and eye-opening narrative explaining depression.

In Transformation: Emergence of the Self, noted analyst and author Murray Stein explains what this process is, and what it means for an individual to experience it. Transformation usually occurs at midlife, but is much more complicated than what we colloquially call a midlife crisis. Consciously working through this life stage can lead people to become who they are and have always potentially been. Indeed, Stein suggests, transformation is the essential human task.
