This volume is an historically based critical evaluation of Freud's
personality theory. In it the observations Freud made are described
and the theoretical ideas he put forward for explaining them are
set out. The adequacy of Freud's explanations are judged against
the logical and scientific standards of Freud's own time. The
historical perspective will give the reader a sound basis on which
to make a judgement about psycho-analysis as a method of
investigation and a theory of personality as well as a sense of
what Freud was about from Freud's own standpoint. Freud's endeavour
is sited in the psychological and psychiatric context of the time,
a period not previously given the critical attention it warrants.
All of Freud's important assumptions and characteristic modes of
thought are to be found in this formative period. The placement
also brings out more clearly the basis of a number of the
unresolved problems of contemporary psycho-analytic theory, such as
the place of affect and the instinctual drives, the role of the
ego, and the basis of treatment.
