A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis

by Sigmund Freud

Translated by G. Stanley Hall

"A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis" by Sigmund Freud is a set of lectures given in 1915-1917. In twenty-eight accessible talks, Freud presents his revolutionary ideas about the unconscious mind, dreams, and neuroses to a lay audience. Beginning with everyday slips of the tongue, progressing through dream analysis, and culminating in theories of mental illness, he grounds his radical psychological theories in common experience. The lectures became his most popular and widely translated work, offering both newcomers and advanced readers insight into the foundations of psychoanalytic thought.
