This book is collection of lectures held by Sigmund Freud in front of all those interested in psychoanalysis - doctors and laymen alike.
Book is divided into three sections - omissions, dreams and their interpretation (hardest but without doubt the most important part of the book) and finally neurosis and general overview of [psychoanalysis] practice.
What I like about Freud's writing is that he does not go around "beating the bush" but goes straight to the point. This book is just an overview of foundation of psychoanalysis, its main fields of interests and short overview of problems encountered during the practice (of which practice itself is [and especially in those days was] the greatest issue itself).

Highly recommended. ( )

In 1915 at the University of Vienna 60-year-old Sigmund Freud delivered these lectures on psychoanalysis, pointing to the interplay of unconscious and conscious forces within individual psyches. In reasoned progression he outlined core psychoanalytic concepts, such as repression, free association and libido.
