Psychoanalysis as Biological Science

A Comprehensive Theory

Beschreibung

This provocative study provides psychoanalysis with a tenable framework. Beginning with an overview of Freud's enduring contributions to the field, Gedo discusses the importance of both mental contents and reliable, measurable psychobiological data. He then addresses each of the major topics of a comprehensive theory of mind, focusing on the accessibility of biological information. The final section integrates these theories into a comprehensive biological hypothesis about behavior and psychoanalytic treatment.
