Sigmund Freud Collected Writings: The Psychopathology of Everyday Life, The Theory of Sexuality, Beyond the Pleasure Principle, The Ego and the Id, The Future of an Illusion

interesting read

This book reads like it was never proofread before publication. Consider the following paragraph from page 38 of the book,"A patient consulted me for the first time, and from her history it became apparent that the cause of her nervousness was largely [un]happy married life. Without any encouragement she went into details about her marital troubles. She had not lived with her husband for about six months, and she saw him last at the theatre when she saw the play Officer 606. I [drew] her attention to the mistake, and she immediately corrected herself, saying that she had [meant] to say Officer 666 (the name of a recent popular play)."Content in brackets are what I suppose was meant, but are left out of the text. Words are frequently omitted the way "drew" or "meant" are omitted, and more typical typographical errors like letter substitutions are also scattered about everywhere. You can figure out what's meant most of the time, but it really distracts from the content to try to decipher what the text is supposed to be.Don't buy this book.As far as I can tell, I'm reading the first edition, copyright 2010. If another edition has come out since, perhaps these mistakes have been corrected, but you should be able to check for yourself with the "Search inside this book" feature on Amazon.Otherwise it seems like a good collection of Freudian texts. Shame it's so poorly edited.

This is just a print out. Large and unwieldy and basically useless for academic purposes. Luckily the price isn't too high so you save on ink and printing costs. A bit dissapointing.

Studying an Access to HE course Health at college and this is perfect for my needs. Value for money and far delivery.

Very Satisfied

Good translation. Fascinating work as expected.

An insane amount of typos and just outright missing words. It feels like it was put through google translate.EDIT: So I'm almost done the book, and it seems that, funny enough, this is actually only an issue in the chapters about forgetting and omitting words. To make it even funnier, Freud talks about how this can be contagious.
