A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis is written by Sigismund Schlomo Freud, an Austrian neurologist remembered as the founding father of psychoanalysis for his numerous works including The Interpretation of Dreams, Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality and Beyond the Pleasure Principle. This book contains the author’s research papers which were read in various conferences and were even rewritten by Freud. Freud‘s approach to dreams, unconscious and the theory of neuroses were part of his lectures, which had been compiled to a book form later.
