The Autobiography of Wilhelm Stekel - the Life Story of a Pioneer Psychoanalyst
Wilhelm Stekel
Wilhelm Stekel was a pioneering psychoanalyst whose prodigious intuition and medical skill had permitted him to compile, study, and interpret the case histories of thousands of patients. He was in a hurry; Cataclysmic World War II events were besetting him; a grave illness he well understood was hewing at his gaunt, proud figure. Calmly, but with intense speed, he prepared his record, the culmination of which can be seen within this text. Diligently organised and reproduced by Emil A. Gutheil, this fascinating autobiography of the seminal Austrian psychologist is a must-read for anyone interested in Stekel?s work. Chapters contained herein include: Childhood, University Days, Practising Medicine, Introduction to Freud and Psychoanalysis, The Break with Freud, Practising Psychoanalysis, A Trip to America, Travel on The Continent, etc., etc. Wilhelm Stekel was an Austrian physician, psychologist, one of Sigmund Freud's earliest followers, and described as "Freud's most distinguished pupil?. This rare text is republished now with a new introductory biography of the author.
