Sigmund Freud and the Jewish Mystical Tradition

Summary: an interesting theory on the origin of psychoanalysis
Review: This book's premise is that much of Freud's psychoanalytic theory had its roots in the Jewish religion,particularly the mysticism of the Kabbala. The author also explains how Freud's own Jewish heritage contributed, either consciously or unconsciously, to his psychological theories. I recommend this book to anyone interested in exploring the roots of Freud's development of psychoanalysis.
