The Nature of Human Conflicts

The internationally renowned Soviet psychologist presents here the results of his research into the disorganization and control of human behavior.

The book is the outcome of seven years' experimentation with conflicts in the human mind, during which time artificial complexes were set up in normal adults, children, and neurotic personalities, and then resolved. Dr. Luria gives a remarkable description and interpretation of the mechanisms lying at the basis of behavior disorganization and offers an experimental approach to the laws of human behavior.
