'This book is both a primer and a resource for the specialist. It provides an accessible outline of the whole of Freud's work through analysis of key texts... the volume is an amazing editorial achievement for which readers of Freud should be most grateful.' - The Scientific and Medical Network Review'Reading Freud is a significant contribution to the psychoanalytic literature. It is a work that reaffirms the continued value of Freudian thought in an era in which psychoanalytic ideas are under attack. It belongs on the bookshelf of both beginning candidates and experienced psychoanalysts.' - Glen Gabbard, Training Psychoanalyst of the American Psychoanalytic Association, Huston 'A unique aid to the teaching and to the studying of Freud's writing. This book is both imaginative and very instructive, particularly in placing Freud's work in context. A very ingenious colour coding helps the reader to differentiate between Freud's articles under discussion and various additional reflections and comments made from a variety of angles. A real must for anybody seriously interested in Psychoanalysis.' - Anne-Marie Sandler, Training Psychoanalyst of the British Psychoanalytical Society, London
