About This Item
Washington, DC: Counterpoint / Cornelia & Michael Bessie, 1998. 1st ed.. Hardback thick, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), black & white photos centre spread, minor edgewear. Heavy, and extra postage may be requested to destinations outside Australia. 464 pp. First edition. Freud, his work and era (psychoanalysis), emerge in fine detail in this robust portrait, both sympathetic and critical where necessary (as in his support for the quack Dr Fleiss). Paul Ferris presents the many aspects of this complex man: the charismatic personality, the persistent superstitions and neuroses, the vindictive temper and wilful self-confidence, and finally, the quiet strength of a man enduring chronic pain and disfigurement from the cancer that eventually killed him.
