Sciences of the Flesh - Representing Body and Subject in Psychoanalysis

"This is a major work of cultural and intellectual history. . . . A landmark in the interpretation of psychoanalysis in its genesis and emergence, it is also a major explanation of how we came to view the subject the way many or most people do today."--J. Hillis Miller, University of California, Irvine
"Sciences of the Flesh is a demanding, but rich study, and a short review cannot do it justice. It has made me want to return to Freud, understanding him as a part of nineteenth-century psychology, and not as its nemesis."--Victorian Studies

Psychoanalysis may be said to have been born in the 20th century, Freud said late in his career, but it did not drop from the skies ready-made. This is a re-assessment of Freud and the historical development of pyschoanalysis.
