Summary: Publisher's Comments
Review: Thirty five papers from a variety of intellectual journals trace fifty years of distinguished service to psycho-analysis, sociology, politics and anthropology. The author of such well known books as "Superstition and Society" (Hogarth, 1939)." Psychoanalysis and Politics" (Duckworth, 1951) AND "Man's Picture of his World" (Duckworth, 1961) has embodied in his experience and thought the history of psychoanalysis to date. Having been analysed by Freud, Ernest Jones and Melanie Klein at different periods of his scientific development in more recent years he has taken full account of the work of W. R. Bion. Mr. Money-Kyrle's wide and varied experience of people, places and modes of thought have made him a unique figure bridging the often isolated worlds of psychoanalysis, politics, philosophy and social sciences. A vivid and entertaining autobiographic sketch traces his development in this volume, Which also contain such famous papers as "The Psychology of Propaganda", "Psycho-anlysis and Ethics", "Normal Counter-transference and Some of its Deviations", "Cognitive Development" and "The Aims of Psychoanalysis".
