This work presents a complete history of psychoanalysis from its
origins in 19th-century medical science to the end of the 20th
century. The origins of psychoanalysis as well as the more
immediate influences on Freud are explored, as is the way the
discipline he founded has developed and changed.Joseph Schwartz
first lays out the late Victorian approaches to mental illness and
health and explains the context in which Freud's revolution took
place. He traces the evolution of Freud's own thought, then shows
how and why the rifts and shifts in the analytic community
occurred. He then focuses on Freud's colleagues, rivals, successors
and detractors - Jung, Adler, Sullivan, Melanie Klein, Erich Fromm
to name a few. For once we see how the different schools and
interpretations fit together - how they grew in response to each
other, and what separate contributions each pioneer made over the
last hundred years to create an effective understanding of the
world of human subjective experience.
