In the fields of psychiatry and psychotherapy, few would argue that the work and thought of Sigmund Freud has had more influence than that of any other figure. While many other related schools of thought have since developed, it is still Freud whose ideas are studied in greatest detail by students of psychology and psychiatry. In this major reference work, approximately one hundred key articles assessing the ideas of Freud are assembled, with editorial commentary. Part of the first volume considers his life and times, while the remaining three volumes examine key areas of Freud's work. This set represents an important work of reference for both scholars and students of Freud.
