About This Book

A set of essays offers a psychoanalytic account of human sexual life, arguing that sexual impulses appear in infancy, take varied forms that may be repressed or transformed, and influence later development and psychopathology. Relying on clinical observation and interpretation, the author examines sexual deviations, traces infantile sexual manifestations and their role in character formation, and describes how puberty reorganizes earlier libidinal impulses through repression and sublimation. The essays link perversions and many neurotic symptoms to disturbed sexual development, emphasize unconscious motives revealed in dreams and memory, and indicate therapeutic directions for addressing sexual and neurotic disorders.
