Beyond psychology

Mehr zum Buch

Madness and pathos alternate in these selections from the controversial psychoanalyst's (1897-1957) papers, which document the scientific delusions and personal difficulties that preoccupied him from the mid-1930s through his immigration to America on the eve of WWII. Because materials remain missing, this sequel to 1988's Passion of an Autobiography, 1897-1922 begins in 1934. Reich comes across as a crank, but a fascinating and human figure all the same.
