Zusatztext 'With - Totem and Tabo Freud invented evolutionary psychology.''Freud has told us that for him all natural science! medicine! and psychotherapy were a lifelong journey round and back to the early passion of his youth for the history of mankind! for the origins of religion and morality - an interest which at the height of his career broke out to such magnificent effect in - Totem and Taboo.' - Thomas Mann'Relations between social anthropology and psychology are still ill-defined and unstable. But in any resolution of them the work of psychoanalysts must be taken very seriously into account. It is very useful! then! to have this new translation of the pioneer work.' - Nature'Freud had a strong element of the artist in his composition.
