THE STORY OF MY PSYCHOANALYSIS by John Knight

THE STORY OF MY PSYCHOANALYSIS

By

Pub Date: Sept. 28th, 1950
Publisher: McGraw-Hill

My psychoanalysis, even more than my operation, offers an unlimited opportunity for personal self-expression, but may catch a certain amount of popular curiosity particularly in its liberated sexual admissions. John Knight traces here the some 300 treatments which cured a nearly fatal stomach ulcer; the techniques of free association and dream interpretation used; the varying phases of his relationships with his analyst; the unmasking of early memories, of the soars of anti-semitism in his youth, of his resentment of his father, and of his sexual sexual experiences- explicitly and extensively. A psyche probe, for those who want to probe along with him, or want to see how it's done.
