Title: Selected works
Description: Originally published in 1959, this paperback--now out of print--is unique in providing samples of 5 books by Rank: "Myth of the Birth of the Hero" (1st ed.), "Art and Artist," "Modern Education" (o.p.), "Will Therapy," and "Truth and Reality. "Myth" is a youthful brief work (95 pages here); a larger and better 2nd ed. (1922 in German, English tr. 2004) is now available. Freund's choices and his 9-page introduction are very good. This is still the best short introduction to Rank, though it does not include "The Trauma of Birth," which was important in his break with Freud, though not his best work. [E. James LIEBERMAN, 'Best Introduction to Otto Rank', March 1, 2014, [Amazon][1] comment]
