Beyond the Pleasure Principle is a groundbreaking work by Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis. Published in 1922, the book explores the concept of the death drive, which Freud believed to be a fundamental human instinct that drives individuals towards self-destruction and the return to an inorganic state. Freud argues that the death drive is in conflict with the pleasure principle, which dictates that individuals seek pleasure and avoid pain. He also discusses the concept of repetition compulsion, where individuals unconsciously repeat traumatic experiences in an attempt to master them. In addition to these theoretical concepts, Beyond the Pleasure Principle also includes case studies and clinical observations that illustrate Freud's ideas. The book has had a significant impact on the field of psychology and continues to be studied and debated today.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1922 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
