Neurotic personality of our time. New ways in psychoanalysis. Horney K.

The most famous works of the genius psychoanalyst Karen Horney, a bright representative of “Neophadism”, are written in a slight, pleasant language and are understandable even to non-specialists. Incredibly popular in the time, they have not lost their significance today. The collection includes “New ways in psychoanalysis” - criticism of Freud's main views (libido theory, concepts of anxiety and narcissism), as well as an unforgettable “neurotic personality of our time”. Horney in a scientific accurately and stylistically figuratively convinces the reader that education for the development of an individual is much more important than his natural predisposition. Particular attention in the book is paid not by the past, but by the neurotic conflicts existing at this time and attempts to solve them, as well as its pressing anxiety and the defense created from them. The book is addressed not only to psychiatrists and psychologists, but also to teachers, social workers, anthropologists and even... neurotics themselves, since they “have a more subtle and accurate understanding of psychological difficulties than their healthy brothers.”
