Riassunto

The history of psychoanalysis has standard signposts: Freud, the unconscious, the analytic hour and the deep splits and schisms that have characterised its development. And not least the accusation that it is unscientific and therefore unreliable. Schwartz not only answers this accusation but draws together the great events of the century and the theoretical shifts and developments of psychoanalysis to describe the attempts of the last 100 years to understand the workings of the subjective mind. CASSANDRA'S DAUGHTER is essentially a humane and non-didactic view of a complex and schism-ridden history that suggests that the similarities between many of the major theorists is perhaps greater than we think.
