Sigmund Freud 
A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis [EPUB ebook] 

Though it has now fallen out of favor among many practitioners and scholars, Freud's concept of psychoanalysis—an approach that focuses primarily on adverse events in early childhood and irrational drives that are overcome via extended talk therapy—was and continues to be enormously influential, not only in the realm of psychology, but also in the larger culture. This volume offers a comprehensive overview of psychoanalysis from the point of view of the field's creator.
