About the Book

In refreshing contrast to most other books on Sigmund Freud, this is a highly accessible account of his life and ideas, which focuses on the relevance of Freud's work for contemporary approaches to counselling and psychotherapy. The book provides an overview which is based firmly on Freud's own writings, but which goes far beyond a recapitulation of the existing literature, to offer fresh insights and some surprises, about both Freud the man and his theories. Written by bestselling author, Michael Jacobs and now fully updated for its Second Edition, Sigmund Freud presents and responds to the criticisms that Freud's work attracted and charts his continuing influence in the twenty-first century. This is highly recommended reading for those training in counselling and psychotherapy as well as those studying Freud in other contexts.

The Life of Sigmund Freud Freud′s Major Theoretical Contributions Freud′s Major Contributions to Practice Criticisms and Rebuttals Freud′s Influence on Therapy and the Wider World

About the Author :
Michael Jacobs was for many years director of the counselling and psychotherapy programme at the University of Leicester. He is one of the pioneers of psychodynamic counselling and therapy in Britain. He has written and edited over sixty books including Sigmund Freud (SAGE, 2nd edition, 2003) and D.W. Winnicott (SAGE, 1995). He has been a visiting professor at Leeds and Bournemouth Universities and has a Ph.D, his thesis being on psychoanalytic criticism of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. He has retired from practice as a therapist and supervisor, and as a teacher and trainer, but maintains a keen interest in the development of psychodynamic thinking and practice.

Review :
'Will be welcomed by those seeking a good introduction to Freud and by others who already "know" him... Jacobs' book helps us both in our own search for meaning and in appreciating why Freud continues to be a major milestone in it'
