At just the moment when many people are ready to throw Freud on to
the ash-heap of intellectual history, "Sex on the Couch "rescues
from Freud's theories a fascinating series of reflections on the
nature of sexuality and gender.
Richard Boothby presents here a fresh and engaging view of Freud.
"Sex on the Couch" offers new insights into our concepts of
masculinity and femininity, placing them in relation to Freud's
theory of the Life and Death drives. Richard Boothby also engages
feminist critiques of Freud, putting forward new and specific
responses to questions that have shaped contemporary understanding
of feminism and psychoanalysis. Boothby's Freud, far from being
passe, is in possession of insights that enrich our understanding
of modernity and its distinctive character.
In a refreshingly readable style, Richard Boothby writes here not
only for the scholarly reader but for the student and lay reader
curious about Freud's theories and their use in contemporary world.
