In this seminal work of personality psychology, Austrian psychiatrist Sigmund Freud explains the dynamic of the human psyche with respect to the roles and conflicts produced by the id (the hidden source of human passion), ego (formed to negotiate the id's interactions with reality), and super-ego (the cricitcal, moralistic part of the mind); the latter two which remain in constant conflict with the id's demands. Freud further explores the concepts of the life force and the death force, and the anxieties driven by fear, morality, and guilt. This groundbreaking volume constitutes one of the Viennese physician's most insightful works on the topic.
