Description
At just the moment when many people are ready to throw Freud on to the ash-heap of intellectual history, Sex on the Couch rescues from Freud's theories a fascinating series of reflections on the nature of sexuality and gender. Richard Boothby presents here a fresh and engaging view of Freud. Sex on the Couch offers new insights into our concepts of masculinity and femininity, placing them in relation to Freud's theory of the Life and Death drives. Richard Boothby also engages feminist critiques of Freud, putting forward new and specific responses to questions that have shaped contemporary understanding of feminism and psychoanalysis. Boothby's Freud, far from being passé, is in possession of insights that enrich our understanding of modernity and its distinctive character.In a refreshingly readable style, Richard Boothby writes here not only for the scholarly reader but for the student and lay reader curious about Freud's theories and their use in contemporary world.

This is an extremely well-written and accessible introduction to Freudian psychology, especially what Freud has to tell us about the emotional needs and desires of men and women. Boothby's writing is not at all pedantic. in fact, it's pretty fun. "Sex on the Couch" is clearly designed to be read by people with no particular background in psychology. By examining many different aspects of our intimate life and human culture through the lens of our emotional interests, ambivalences, and defenses, and by placing these in the central context of our sexuality, Boothby gives us a very useful (you might even say practically useful) means for understanding ourselves and the society we live in. This is not in any way pop psychology. Nevertheless, it a very readable, engaging and lucid book. If I were a parent I'd give it to my son or daughter when they reached college age. But anyone of any age can greatly profit from reading it.
