On Freud's "Group Psychology and the Analysis of the EGO" (Paperback)

The contributors to this volume provide commentaries on Freud s work, explicating the multiple ways in which Freud s insights continue to illuminate the irrational dynamics to which all groups including psychoanalytic institutions, are prey. Serving as both an introduction to, and elegant expansion of, Freud s text, this volume demonstrates the role of psychoanalytic hypotheses in obtaining deeper insight into the tectonic shifts in group psychology underlying today s mass society."
