This seminal psychoanalytic work by Wilhelm Stekel was intended as a
guide to the interpretation of the Unconscious for those who are
concerned professionally with nervous disorders. An indispensible aid to
contemporary psychoanalysts, this book is devoted to correlating the
subjects' dreams with the neurotic character traits which confront their
psychotherapeutic practitioners. Contents include: The Meaning of
Symbolism, The Analysis of a Simple Dream, Dream Masks, The Spitting of
Personality in the Dream, et cetera. This scarce text will appeal to
students of psychoanalysis, and is not to be missed by collectors of
Stekel's work. Wilhelm Stekel (1868 - 1940) was an Austrian psychologist
and physician. 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.
