Review of Adam Phillips, Becoming Freud: The Making of a Psychoanalyst
Category: COLLEGE
Phillips does tell us that, as a young child in the 1860s, Sigmund regularly found himself displaced by the birth of new siblings -- six in seven years. As newlyweds in the 1880s, Freud and his wife practically repeated this history, welcoming new children -- six in eight years.
