Sigmund Freud is a book in which each chapter is a gem-a concise, very accessible rendering of the essence of Freud's psychoanalytic thinking, accessible by readers within and outside of the field of psychotherapy. This is not a textbook or primer; it is an insightful discussion of some of the most important ideas to be launched in the twentieth century. Dr. Thomas Ogden (Psychoanalytic Institute of Northern California) In his new, quite brief, book on Freud, Jean-Michel Quinodoz captures both the breadth and the depth of Freud's work. It is not a superficial summary of Freud's work, but rather a remarkable re-presentation and exploration of Freud's central psychoanalytic tenets that continue to underlie and inform our work today as psychoanalysts and psychotherapists. William F. Cornell (author of Explorations in Transactional Analysis) Jean Michel Quinodoz is able to distil complex ideas into something easily available to a wide audience without talking down to his readers. He has managed to cover in this small book the main lines of Freud's oeuvre. Dr. Dana Birksted-Breen (British Psychoanalytical Society and The Institute of Psychoanalysis)
