The Ego and the Mechanisms of Defence
by Anna Freud and The Institute of Psychoanalysis
Published 1 January 1968
This book deals with one particular problem that is with the ways and means by which the ego wards off unpleasure and anxiety, and exercises control over impulsive behavior, affects, and instinctive urges. It is a major contribution to psychoanalytic psychology.
