A brilliant overview of the core psychoanalytical concepts. Good for readers at any stage of their learning.

Reads easily but doesn't delve much into affect.

Easy and quick read, examples and experiences were well done in my opinion. Good psychoanalysis introduction

[Fernando · Rating 2 out of 5]

Interesting. It starts well looses structure and depth of thought in the analisys of several case studies, some of then will fit you or address to people you know, but... Easy reading , easy to understand, needing a little more read Dr. Freud!

Graham Music's writing demonstrates his own high- level mentalising skills by putting himself in the place of the non- expert and explaining complex ideas in such an accessible way. Beautifully punctuated by apposite literary quotes. Loved it!
