    Synopsis

    In these lectures, which he gave in 1915-16 and 1916-17 at the University of Vienna, Freud gradually brings his audience into the ambiance of psychoanalytic ideas. He begins with the subject of slips of various kinds, continues with the topic of dreams, and concludes with the more difficult subject matter of the neuroses. The lectures were a success when he delivered them and an even greater success in print.

    March 13, 2003: This is a classic. A good book to start with if you want to learn about Freud Psychology. You should first read an outline of his ideas in another book, just to understand the main ideas he talks about. But after that, this will really be a good introduction to psychoanalysis. He is very descriptive and dissects his argument into the smallest of details. You cannot just 'read' this book, you have to have a pen and paper on the side to review what you read every two-three pages. You will learn everyhting there is to know about: slips, dreams and neuroses. But even when he is analyzing slips, you get an insight into the whole human psyche. A great book, but have patience reading it.
