Description

Freud argues that the individual psyche is inherently social, and that group psychology is an essential component of human behavior. He examines the way in which groups form, the role of leaders in groups, and the way in which group behavior can be both beneficial and destructive. Overall, "Group Psychology and the Analysis of the Ego" is a groundbreaking work that continues to influence the fields of psychology and sociology today. It provides a fascinating exploration of the complex interplay between individual psychology and group behavior, and sheds light on the social and psychological forces that shape our lives. Read in English, unabridged.

Sigmund Freud (born Sigismund Schlomo Freud; 6 May 1856 – 23 September 1939) was an Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis, a clinical method for evaluating and treating pathologies arising from conflicts in the psyche through dialogue between patient and psychoanalyst, and the distinctive theory of mind and human agency derived from it.
