Freud was the greatest psychologist of the 20th century. The psychoanalysis he founded influenced the entire Western world in the 20th century and also influenced China at the end of the 20th century. Since his books were introduced to Chinese readers in the 1980s, many people have become loyal fans of Freud. Freud's book is primarily concerned with the analysis of dreams. Of course, he explained dreams in a scientific way, not in a Chinese superstitious way. At the same time, he also conducted a more in-depth analysis of the dream. Among the books published among them is the book "The Psychology of Dreams". The book "The Psychology of Dreams" also has a subtitle (as shown in this manuscript), which is a step-by-step introductory book for people who care about psychoanalysis. In other words, to correctly understand psychoanalysis, you must start with this book. In this book, the interpretation of dreams is already very profound. In addition, since "The Psychology of Dreams" is not very long, the editor has attached another Chinese translation of "The Diary of a Girl" that has been published in China, making it a two-in-one bound edition. In order to enable readers to have a deeper understanding of dream analysis and understanding through the analysis of dreams and subsequent specific cases. This English translation is the most authoritative English translation widely popular in the West.
