Freud and the Bolsheviks: Psychoanalysis in Imperial Russia and the Soviet Union

This fascinating book is the first comprehensive history of psychoanalysis in Russia from the last years of the tsars through Stalin`s withering ideological assault to the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. Using rare Russian sources and newly opened Soviet archives, Martin A. Miller explores Freud`s influence in Russia, discusses the lives of the Russian Freudians, and explicates original Russian psychoanalytic case studies.
