An interesting investigation of a relatively little studied aspect of Freud's life that ought to have appeal not only in relation to Freud's life but as a prototypical study of Jewish identity. * Library Journal *\u003cbr\u003eOring uses psychoanalytic methods of interpretation and his detective work is uncanny. His novel approach yields a devastating, original portrait of Freud, rich in startling insights. * Publishers Weekly *\u003cbr\u003eThe most sustained effort, a well-informed monograph from which I have learned. -- Peter Gay\u003cbr\u003eThere is something very bracing in Oring's ability to find some of Freud's deepest concerns in something apparently frivolous. * Women's Wear Daily *\u003cbr\u003eOring's book on Freud is meticulous, intelligent, solidly researched, and well written. -- Leo Rosten\u003cbr\u003eOring's work is a serious work of psychobiography. He has collected the jokes and compiled other materials in a scholarly, beautifully annotated way. * International Review Of Psychotherapy *\u003cbr\u003eOring's analysis is subtle, extremely well-documented, and practically free of conjecture. * Semiotica: Journal of the International Association for Semiotic Studies *\u003cbr\u003eThe author manages to be analytical without denigrating Freud, thus avoiding the negative bent in which so many of his critics seem to delight. It makes enjoyable reading. * L.I.G.H.T. *\u003cbr\u003eThe thoroughness of Oring's scholarship is impressive. He has ferreted through a mountain of writings by and about Freud, and his treatment of the material is highly intelligent and interesting. * gem *\u003cbr\u003eProfessor Oring, an anthropologist, has not told us what Freud has eaten, but his integration of data provides a satisfying treatment of the socio-historical context for what other pathologists have previously uncovered. * International Psychologist *\u003cbr\u003eOring has made a major contribution to the study of Freud. * Los Angeles Jewish Community Bulletin *","brand":"Jason Aronson, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037921149271,"sku":"9780765704290","price":36.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780765704290.jpg?v=1750938174","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-jokes-of-sigmund-freud-9780765704290","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
