This seminal psychoanalytic work by Wilhelm Stekel was intended as a guide to the interpretation of the Unconscious for those who are concerned professionally with nervous disorders. An indispensable aid to contemporary psychoanalysis, this book is devoted to correlating the subjects? dreams with the neurotic character traits which confront their psychotherapeutic practitioners and would have baffled their best efforts in the absence of the kind of knowledge contained herein.

This scarce text will appeal to students of psychoanalysis and collectors Stekel?s influential work. This early work was published in 1922 and is proudly republished here with a new introductory biography of the author. Wilhelm Stekel (1868 ? 1940) was a famous Austrian physician and psychologist, most renowned for being an early and prodigious student of Sigmund Freud.
