Dream Psychology: Psychoanalysis for Beginners

Description

Sigmund Freud founded the psychoanalytic school of psychology and was particularly well known for his focus on the unconscious mind. Freud believed that the interpretation of dreams were sources of insight in unconscious desires and the unconscious mind. In Dream Psychology we have an exploration of Freud's theories on the interpretation of dreams, and through this book listeners will gain a better understanding of the theories that made Sigmund Freud such an important figure in the world of psychology. This classic work from the father of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud, delves into the meanings and interpretations of dreams, and narrator Keneth Maxem keeps it accessible to listeners with his conversational and friendly tone. Freud believed that dreams were a source of insight into the unconscious mind, and his theories uncover their hidden meanings, many of which stem from repressed sexual desire. Maxem uses a thoughtful, questioning approach that eases listeners into the text and neatly smooths over the jargon in Freud's work, at the same time highlighting the importance of dreams to our mental wellbeing.
