Title: To redeem one person is to redeem the world
First published: 2000
Description: "In this biography closely grounded in Frieda Fromm-Reichmann's work, Gail Hornstein brings back to life the maverick psychiatrist who accomplished what Freud and almost everyone else thought impossible: successfully treating schizophrenics and other seriously disturbed mental patients with intensive psychotherapy, not lobotomy, shock treatment, or drugs.".

"To Redeem One Person Is to Redeem the World tells the life story of the German-Jewish refugee analyst, who was the first wife of Erich Fromm. Written with access to a rich archive of Frieda Fromm-Reichmann's clinical work at the legendary Chestnut Lodge Hospital in Rockville, Maryland, and using newly discovered family records and documents from across Europe and the United States, this is the definitive biography of a remarkable woman."--BOOK JACKET.
