The reception of Freud and his new psycho-analysis by different countries makes an interesting study.The author is concerned here only with Germany's reaction, and is dealing with a challenge to the established order, as was the case elsewhere.It follows that the process is of great complexity, the most significant factor being Victorian attitudes towards sexuality and childhood, predominantly repression and hypocrisy concerning the former.This book is concerned mainly with the medical reception of psycho-analysis, but the second portion investigates the early interaction of experimental psychology and psycho-analysis, which reveals interesting differences.The third section concerns the response of the educated German public, and finally the author discusses certain significant nineteenth-century intellectual trends vital to the reception of psycho- analysis in Germany.The text is well written and documented, but the author, being committed to the technique, is not able to be critical enough of it
