In this engrossing new study of Sigmund Freuds life and work, Richard Webster has set out to provide a clear answer to the controversies that have raged for a century around one of the most influential of all modern thinkers. Tracing Freuds essentially religious personality to his childhood, Webster shows how the founder of psychoanalysis allowed his messianic dreams to shape the science he created and to lead him ever deeper into a labyrinth of medical error. Meticulously researched and powerfully argued, Why Freud Was Wrong is destined to become a classic work. 001 0465095801
Richard Webster, the author of A Brief History of Blasphemy, studied English literature at the University of East Anglia, where he has also taught. His articles and reviews have appeared in Critical Quarterly, The Observer, the Times Literary Supplement, and many other journals. He lives in Suffolk, England.
