Why bother now with Sigmund Freud?
As I studied Freud's old age and his late work, I came to see that the problems he encountered were in many ways still ours.
Freud the analyst of sex was something we all knew about. But there was a second phase of Freud's work, little read, that bears strongly on our own crises in politics and religion. Freud was, I came to believe, something of an expert on how and why authority goes bad.
