The Edinburgh International Encyclopaedia of Psychoanalysis
by Ross M. Skelton
Category: Psychology

The Encyclopaedia portrays psychoanalysis as a single discipline greater than any individual author including its founder, Freud. Entries are alphabetically arranged, fully cross-referenced, many with suggestions for further reading. Most importantly the book features both contributors and entries reflecting the various disciplines that have contributed to the development of psychoanalysis and a critical understanding of it. It includes topics on psychoanalysis from psychoanalysts themselves, as well as topics that are best handled by psychiatrists, psychologists, psychotherapists, philosophers, medical researchers, historians, literary critics, anthropologists, and linguists.
