This vintage book contains the first volume of Sigmund Freud's seminal
"Collected Papers". These papers constitute the basis for
psychoanalysis, all of his other work being essentially founded on the
clinical investigations of which these papers are the only published
record. It offers the reader a comprehensive chronicle of his work, of
the development of his ideas, and of psychoanalysis in general. This
volume will appeal to anyone with an interest in Freud or
psychoanalysis, and it will be of special utility to students. Chapters
include: 'On Psychical Mechanism of Hysterical Phenomena', 'Some Points
in a Comparative Study of Organic and Hysterical Paralysis', 'The
Defence of Nero-Psychoses', etcetera. We are republishing this
antiquarian volume in an affordable, high-quality, and modern edition -
complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.
