Introduction to Psychoanalysis

At one time, Sigmund Freud's idea of the influence of the sexual instinct on the psyche and development of human society had the effect of an exploding bomb. The theory of the unconscious, which influences all our actions and deeds, and of sexual attraction as the main driving force of an individual and society as a whole still causes controversy in the scientific community, but it is impossible to deny that Freud's teaching on psychoanalysis made an invaluable contribution to the development of all world psychology. The publication offered to the reader's attention is a series of lectures on introduction to psychoanalysis, read by Sigmund Freud in 1915-1917.
