Beschreibung:
Henri F. Ellenberger (1905-1993) was a French-Canadian psychiatrist and historian of medicine. He is primarily remembered for The Discovery of the Unconscious, his pioneering history of psychiatry, and his collection of essays Beyond the Unconscious. Ellenberger was the recipient of numerous awards, including the Gold Medal of the Beccaria Prize and the Jason A. Hannah Medal of the Royal Society of Canada.
This classic work is a monumental, integrated view of man's search for an understanding of the inner reaches of the mind. In an account that is both exhaustive and exciting, the distinguished psychiatrist and author demonstrates the long chain of development that led to the fruition of dynamic psychiatry in the psychological systems of Janet, Freud, Adler, and Jung.
