Freud: A Very Short Introduction by Anthony Storr

4.0

I've read or attempted to read a few psychoanalysis related things and always struggled with them, so I'm making a concerted effort to learn about it, starting with this. It's a really good introduction and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking to learn about Freud, the explanations of the key ideas are clear and easy to understand while also having a good amount of detail. The writer gives his own opinions and provides critical perspectives on Freud, which may or may not be to your taste in an intro book like this, but I felt it was always in a way that added to my understanding and managed to avoid being overly intrusive.
