Psychopathology of Everyday Life by Sigmund Freud Book Summary

“Only for the most select and most balanced minds does it seem possible to guard the perceived picture of external reality against the distortion to which it is otherwise subjected in its transit through the psychic individuality of the one perceiving it.” - Freud
Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) is known around the world as the “Father of Psychoanalysis,” and for good reason. If anything, Freud’s first patient was himself. A sufferer of psychosomatic symptoms, Freud diagnosed himself as having a repressed antagonism against his father. From there, Freud began to build on his now famous concepts of the unconscious, infantile sexuality and repression. And of course, there’s his famous theory on the structure of the mind, which has made Id and Ego a commonly used part of the English lexicon. 
In addition to all but creating a new field of science, Freud also contributed to entire industries. One of the first to try to analyze dreams, Freud’s work has led patients in search of psychological explanations for various physical and mental symptoms and phenomena. And as a practitioner for many years, Freud wrote voluminously about his theories during the early 20th century. As a result, he remains one of the most influential and famous thinkers and psychologists of the 20th century.
Psychopathology of Everyday Life looks at some of the more intriguing and obscure facets of people's lives. In it, Freud analyzes such things as why people forget names, why people make mistakes while writing and speaking, and how people remember distant memories. 
This edition of Freud’s Psychopathology of Everyday Life is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and is illustrated with over a dozen pictures of Freud, his life and work.
