Author(s): Paul Roazen

Psychology

In this book Roazen reaches back to the beginning of his career in the 1960s, when he interviewed more than 70 people who had known Sigmund Freud personally, among them nearly a dozen members of Freud's family. These included three of Freud's children - Oliver, Mathilda and Anna - and several in-laws, nieces, nephews and grandchildren. Roazen also met with many members of Freud's other family - the men and women who became part of the psychoanalytic movement and regarded Freud as their mentor and patriarch.
