An intellectual biography of Sigmund Freud written from a sceptical point of view. The claim of the book is that Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis, was misled and misleading, bewitched by the simplicity of his own ideas.In its afterword, the book puts forward the opinion that the Recovered Memory movement (exposing child sex abuse) has Freud's fingerprints all over it.
