Part of What Do We Believe series, this title looks at the history of an existential approach to the question of being, and traces it through the thought of major thinkers and writers such as Soren Kierkegaard, Jean-Paul Sartre and Albert Camus.
Introducing Freud successfully demystifies the facts of Freud's discovery of psychoanalysis. Irreverent and witty but never trivial, the book tells the story of Freud's life and ideas from his upbringing in 19th century Vienna, his early medical career and his encounter with cocaine, to the gradual evolution of his theories.
