The myth: Sigmund Freud was the heroic investigator who discovered a way to uncover the mind's secret wishes and repressed traumas, thereby curing his neurotic patients and freeing a culture from its dependence on sexual denial. This legend is based on six elements that add up to his historical "breakthrough": Charcot's Lesson, Breuer's success; sexual candor and professional isolation; "Seduction" stories and their true basis; self-analysis; and his farewell to Fliess. The reality: a group of experts explore each of these elements and dissect the prevailing "Freudian" philosophy exposing the evolution of a dangerously overrated figure in the history of medical science. The final take-away for the reader: the Freudian revolution is now a thing of the past.
