Description - Selected Writings by Anna Freud
The selected writings of one of the foremost innovators in psychoanalysis
Although she always remained faithful to the basic frameworks established by her father, Anna Freud (1895-1982) was one of the most creative and innovative thinkers in the history of psychoanalysis. A pioneer in child analysis, Anna Freud wrote extensively on both normal and pathological child development. This superb anthology starts with substantial extracts from her classic The Ego and the Mechanisms of Defence, the first crucial contribution to psychoanalytic theory elaborated by someone other than Sigmund Freud, and follows with fundamental papers on adolescence and analytical technique. Introductory notes and linking passages by specialists Prof. Richard Ekins and Prof. Ruth Freeman make this volume a definitive overview of Anna Freud's career.
