    This is a book that takes a diferent spin on the theme of Freud because it centres on his collection of art objects he owned. Though it is part a none technical biography if you value the ideas of Freud it shows from what his themes & ideas arose.
    Lavishly illustrated this volume fits well into my book shelf & adds another dimension to the theories of Freud.

    Reviewed in the United States on 8 August 2007
    Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase
    A very chatty read going from Freud's birth in Moravia to his escape to London from Nazi-ridden Vienna. I don't think the author makes a strong case for Freud's art collection leading to the development of psychoanalysis. I think the art collection developed as Freud began to publish and treat patients with psychoanalysis. His classical education at the Gymnasium made him familiar with mythology, and I think this led to his collection of antiquities.
