Freud: A Life for Our Time
''Freud: A Life for Our Time'' is a 1988 book by historian Peter Gay, a biography of Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis. The work is based partly on new material that has become available since the publication of Ernest Jones' ''The Life and Work of Sigmund Freud'' (1953).〔 The book has been praised, but has also been criticized by several authors skeptical of psychoanalysis.
==Summary==
Gay writes that, "As a historian, I have placed Freud and his work within their various environments: the psychiatric profession he subverted and revolutionized, the Austrian culture in which he was compelled to life as an unbelieving Jew and unconventional physician, the European society that underwent in his lifetime the appalling traumas of war and totalitarian dictatorship, and Western culture as a whole, a culture whose sense of itself he transformed out of all recognition, forever."〔Gay 1995. p. xvii〕
Gay criticizes Freud for sentimentalizing the emotional tie between a mother and her son, writing that Freud's observation that the relation of mother to son is the only lasting intimate relationship that does not conceal a sediment of hostile feelings, "sounds far more like a wish than a sober inference from clinical material."〔Gay 1995. p. 505〕 At the end of the book, Gay provides a bibliographical essay evaluating works dealing with Freud and psychoanalysis. He describes Elizabeth M. Thornton's ''The Freudian Fallacy'' (1983) as "a model in the literature of denigration".〔Gay 1995. p. 749〕 He credits philosopher Adolf Grünbaum, in ''The Foundations of Psychoanalysis'' (1984), with discrediting Karl Popper's argument that psychoanalysis is a pseudo-science.〔Gay 1995. p. 745〕
