Description
The book 'The Ego and Defense Mechanisms' is one of the classic, fundamental psychoanalytic texts. Anna Freud, the daughter of Sigmund Freud, clearly shows here that psychoanalysis does not exclusively deal with the human unconscious. She demonstrates that, in fact, the Ego and its disturbances have always been the subject of interest in psychoanalysis – with the exploration of the unconscious serving to restore the Ego and its functions. In this book, the author addresses a specific problem – the means by which the Ego defends itself against unpleasant states and anxiety and attempts to manage impulsive behavior, affects, and instinctual demands.
