Exploring the role of Freud and his contemporaries, Martin Wain presents them as social, political, and economic therapists responding to the upheavals of late nineteenth-century urban industrial society. Wain argues that their theoretical concepts and practices served as a treatment for the cultural disorder of the time, offering profound symbolic messages that influenced a wide range of human activities for a century. This provocative examination challenges the scientific and therapeutic validity of Freudian psychoanalysis while highlighting its enduring impact.
