<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The standard edition of Freud's seminal theory of the psychology of sexuality</b> <p/> These three essays -- The Sexual Aberrations, Infantile Sexuality, and The Transformations of Puberty -- are among Sigmund Freud's most important works. Here, Freud outlines the core features of libido theory, his grand view of the psychology of sexuality: sexual perversion is a matter of human nature and normal sexual behavior only appears later in life, sexual urges begin in infancy, and these urges turn their attention outward as we mature through puberty. <p/> Freud first wrote <i>Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality</i> in 1905 and spent the next two decades making major revisions to the text. This edition offers Freud's complete vision of the sexual self, in the definitive James Strachey translation.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>At the turn of the last century, Freud produced the <i>Three Essays and The Interpretation of Dreams</i>, the two pillars upon which the whole of his psychoanalysis sits like a lintel. Of the two, it is the <i>Three Essays</i>, with its outline of 'the libido theory, ' that has again and again attracted controversy and spurred the later development of psychoanalysis. <br>--<i><b>Elisabeth Young-Bruehl</b></i><br><br>Publishing the <i>Three Essays</i> in a new accessible edition is exciting in and of itself; the commentaries by Marcus and Chodorow make it an historic volume. It is fitting to have a contemporary thinker such as Chodorow help the next generation understand its monumental contributions.<br>--<i><b>Steven J. Ellman</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Sigmund Freud</b> (1856-1939) was a clinical neurologist living and practicing in Vienna. His ground breaking theories of the id, ego, and super-ego of the mind continue to be studied throughout the world.
