Critical Dictionary of Psychoanalysis (Paperback, 2nd Ed Reissue)

A new, second edition of this useful and entertaining reference. The author is highly respected as both psychoanalyst and writer, achieves both clarity of definition and a bracing scepticism of style, with a tongue-in-cheek simplicity which is at times very funny. He manages to explain the often tortuous concepts of psychoanalysis (Freudian and other schools) without the jargonizing pomposity so common in analytic definitions - he admits to suffering from 'the not uncommon constitutional defect of being incapable of understanding Jung's writings'. Deserves a place on the shelf of anyone with an interest in psychoanalysis. (Kirkus UK)

Charles Rycroft's Critical Dictionary of Psychoanalysis is an established reference work providing clear definitions and critical discussions of the technical terms used in psychoanalysis.
