The life and work of Sigmund Freud continue to fascinate general and professional
readers alike. Joel Whitebook here presents the first major biography of Freud since
the last century, taking into account recent developments in psychoanalytic theory
and practice, gender studies, philosophy, cultural theory, and more. Offering a radically
new portrait of the creator of psychoanalysis, this book explores the man in all his
complexity alongside an interpretation of his theories that cuts through the stereotypes
that surround him. The development of Freud's thinking is addressed not only in the
context of his personal life, but also in that of society and culture at large, while
the impact of his thinking on subsequent issues of psychoanalysis, philosophy, and
social theory is fully examined. Whitebook demonstrates that declarations of Freud's
obsolescence are premature, and, with his clear and engaging style, brings this vivid
figure to life in compelling and readable fashion
