The Basic Writings of Sigmund Freud


Sigmund Freud - 1938
    An intriguing introduction to psychoanalysis, it shows how subconscious motives underlie even the most ordinary mistakes we make in talking, walking and remembering.The Interpretation of Dreams records Freud's revolutionary inquiry into the meaning of dreams and the power of the unconscious.Three Contributions of the Theory of Sex is the seminal work in which Freud traces the development of sexual instinct in humans from infancy to maturity.Wit and Its Relation to the Unconcious expands on the theories Freud set forth in The Interpretation of Dreams. It demonstrates how all forms of humor attest to the fundamental orderliness of the human mind.Totem and Taboo extends Freud's analysis of the individual psyche to society and culture.The History of the Psychoanalytic Movement makes clear the ultimate incompatibility of Freud's ideas with those of his onetime followers Adler and Jung.The Basic Writings of Sigmund Freud is presented here in the translation by Dr. A. A. Brill, who for almost forty years was the standard bearer of Freudian theories in America.

The Defining Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter--And How to Make the Most of Them Now (Updated Edition)


Meg Jay - 2021
    Some say they are a second adolescence. Others call them an emerging adulthood.

The result is a provocative listen that provides the tools necessary to make the most of your 20s, and shows us how work, relationships, personality, social networks, identity, and even the brain can change more during this decade than at any other time in adulthood - if we use the time wisely.The Defining Decade is a smart, compassionate and constructive book about the years we cannot afford to miss.

And they enjoyed these bonds of brotherhood with feasting and a lot of mead during the winter!But today, you live in a modern world of smartphones, suits and safety.
