'Sugarman throws into relief the basic argumentative lines of the Interpretation of Dreams in particular and of Freud's theory as a whole, and the result of her analysis is a novel view of what this theory achieves. Her masterly presentation, clear throughout, knowledgeable and yet concise, gives us a new Freud, one critically examined, but no less fertile in understanding the human mind.'
