Summary Annotation Renowned social psychologist Erich Fromm's classic study of Freud's most important--and controversial--ideas Bestselling philosopher and psychoanalyst Erich Fromm contends that the principle behind Freud's work--the wellspring from which psychoanalysis flows--boils down to one well-known belief: "And the truth shall set you free." The healing power of truth is what Freud used to cure depression and anxiety, cutting through repression and rationalizations, and it provided the foundation for modern psychology. Freud's work, however, was not without its flaws. Though he pioneered many of the practices still in use today, Freud's perspective was imperfect. In Greatness and Limitation of Freud's Thought, Fromm deepens the understanding of Freud by highlighting not just his remarkable insights, but also his flaws, on topics ranging from dreams to sexuality. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Erich Fromm including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author's estate.
