Freud, biologist of the mind

Beyond the Psychoanalytic Legend
Book • 2001
In this monumental intellectual biography, Frank J. Sulloway demonstrates that Freud's most creative inspirations derived significantly from biology.

Sulloway analyzes the political aspects of the complex myth of Freud as a psychoanalytic hero and shows how Freud's theories were influenced by biological assumptions and ideas, particularly those of Charles Robert Darwin.

The book exposes historical distortions and myths surrounding Freud's work, providing a new and comprehensive understanding of Freud and the origins of psychoanalysis.
