About this book
Comprising well-known and obscure information, this compendium provides a historical context to the facts of Sigmund Freud's life, theories, and influence on society. Sigmund Freud is one of the most influential 20th-century intellectuals in Europe and the United States.

Controversy about the scientific utility of psychoanalytic concepts is specifically addressed.
