Description

This is Volume XXIII of thirty-eight in the General Psychology series. So much has been written in recent years on the Unconscious that the time seems opportune to compare and contrast the various important theories that have held the field. Originally published in 1924, this present book aims at a general review of this kind. The subject is Modern Theories of the Unconscious, but as a study of current theories cannot well be entered upon without considering early theories, we include the latter in our general survey and devote the first chapter to their consideration. On account of its importance in modem psychology, Freud's theory is kept much in evidence throughout, and frequent references are made to it when dealing with the work of other authors.

Description

This set provides an eclectic mix of areas within psychology, with many volumes covering a broad range of subjects in themselves. Areas covered include creative imagination, art and the unconscious, dreams, the mind in sleep, the nature of laughter, common sense and consciousness, nervous disorders, the nature of love and hate, as well as investigations into areas now considered more obscure, such as telepathy and clairvoyance. Titles such as The ABC of Psychology (1929), The Psychologist at Work (1937) and Readings in General Psychology (1959) provide an excellent overview of psychology as it has developed over the years. This set also includes classic works such as Man for Himself by Erich Fromm and Emotion by James Hillman.
