Contained within this book is a fascinating treatise on analytical
psychotherapy, written by the seminal Austrian psychologist, Wilhelm
Stekel. A comprehensive and accessible outline of psychoanalytical
methodology, this scarce text will appeal to both amateur students and
seasoned practitioners alike. Wilhelm Stekel (1868 - 1940) was an
Austrian physician and psychologist, most famous for his works: "The
Interpretation of Dreams: New Developments and Techniques" (1943) and
"Sadism and Masochism: The Psychology of Hatred and Cruelty" (1929). He
was an early follower of the seminal Sigmund Freud, often described as
Freud's most distinguished pupil and commonly hailed as one of the
founding fathers of modern psychoanalytical methodology. Many vintage
texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with
this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable,
modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially
commissioned new biography of the author.
